We were relatively cheap before kids. Now we need to buy everything for kid and pending kid - above average childcare, activities, private school, UG at sticker, graduate school, real-estate, wedding. It's never going to end. Obviously there needs to be a balance.

I would be so much cheaper as a spendy female who didn't want kids.

It's obviously not worth the $ to pay so much to avoid the 0.0001% chance of being shot but you just have so many more places to spend money such that you will never feel like you have enough money.

I plan to have multiple kids on a household income of merely $170,000. In part, I hope to prove XO wrong wrong wrong about the real cost of rearing children.

XO is wrong obviously. I'm also wrong. No one needs to buy all that crap. But there are so many more ways to spend money now that are far more justifiable than 500 handbags. Which I never participated in anyways.

I was very lucky that I was super cheap in my 20's and socked away a lot of retirement $$$. I'm gonna be running a deficit during the daycare years.

You are going to feel so much poorer once it comes out. You will want to do everything for it and so you will feel so much poorer. That's how it is for me but it's not reasonable. Obviously time with parents matter.

I thought you only had to spend money if your kids are in danger of too much socialization with low income ppl

It's true but you can also easily spend several million per kid doing all the crap I listed. So you will never feel like you have enough.

It doesn't matter. Basically once you have kids there will be so many more not unreasonable ways to spend all your $.

Also LJL at writing an entire paragraph about diaper expenses.

A few things...

Im not going to pay for grad school if they want to get a useless degree...I feel more obligation to fund UG.

I’m not paying for a wedding, though there is always a sizable cash gift.

Mortgage, it’ll depend on circumstances. If they’re shitheads, then no.
