That’s how you do it. Avoid the mooch men.
Or just have Robert Denero or Al Pacinos baby.

Corporate law, consulting, sales, any number of professions offer that earning potential at a relatively young age.
But all if thosecrequire an extra degree, no?
Hence, more tuition (and miscellaneous) college costs.
So who is paying for that?
Wrong.
Both DH and I are in sales and have a combined HHI of between 750k-1.5 and we graduated from GMU with basic business degrees.

I live a similar life to your daughter, but with kids. I'm 32yo, married, 2 kids, own a business making mid 6 figures. DH and I both work remotely so we travel and explore a ton as a family while the kids are little. I'm really hoping to set a good work/life balance for my kids and I cannot wait to see what they do when they grow up!
Similar, but really completely opposite 🤣🤣
Facts are kids are a bummer. OPs daughter is living the life. You are living the grind. You’d body is wrecked and you have a ball and chain teathered to you.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As guy with a few daughters I have to say a single guy making 200k at 29 is way better.
She has to worry all the mooch men cling in to her wanting her cash [/quote]
A man making $200K would also have to worry about women wanting to mooch off of him. Both would worry me.

Women give birth men don’t. [/quote]
Not all women do. Lots of options like surrogacy, adoption and IVF, too. [/quote]
Luckily my sperm could knock up a 90 year old spinster. But I guess some ladies got men with rusty sperm.

Does your daughter hold this view ? If so, it is a great way to remain single.
I hope and pray my daughters know this. My two sisters who were successful attracted mooch men. Both with masters and good jobs. They each had three kids. Can you imagine being nine months pregnant going to executive meetings worrying about the mortgage patents while your husband is home unemployed between jobs. My other sister her idiot husband topped this guy he in 2008 lost their life savings in a Bernie madoff life Ponzi scheme. My sister was two busy with a working full time and raising three kids.
My brother and I had stay at home wives. Unlike these mooch men they gave birth, raised kids, cleaned the house, sent out holiday cards, cooked meals, drove kids around, did all the shopping. In other words way more work than I or brother did sitting in an office.
my two sisters should have hid their success as mooch men are the worst

Mom & Dad
It’s ironic that OP writes “no debt” as if that’s an accomplishment on her DD’s part
"No debt" is great, but may be due to family finances that paid for her education and suggests that she is not a homeowner so there is a lot of income thrown away for rent--unless, of course, she still lives at home.
Depends on how you define “thrown away.” Some of us view independent living as priceless.

Well I do not, so there’s that. The world is overpopulated and most kids are neglected.

Among the most narrow minded posts that I have ever read. Works both ways.
