Xers are into their late 40s / early 50s now..... eek

Luckily no kids and an aggressive savings strategy means I have the retirement horizon of a public employee. grin

Happy birthday!...I once saw a joke that said "children are the greatest wealth reducing substance known to man"...I'm not sure it is a joke.

As a parent, I know that the kids are greatest wealth reducing substance know to man/woman. My high school freshman would like to go on a school trip to Japan ($4000), choir tour ($1000), and a leadership conference ($1,000), not to mention all the other activities she is involved in ($$$). She will be able to do two of these items, the other she will have to wait to do until she can pay her own way!

I used to think this too, but I now realize that airplanes are the greatest wealth reducing substance.

Perhaps, but you're much less likely to wind up with a surprise airplane from having too much to drink (not accusing anyone here, just a general statement). shocked laugh

LOL...You can also sell an airplane and not be responsible for it...Kids are a permanent affliction (or at least financially for 18 years). :0

Agree with Skittles. And once those kids start having kids it just starts being fun to spend money on them. That's when that airplane would come in handy if they all live a good distance away!

One of them young'uns I hired a while bank came to me on her first day to tell me that she'll be registering for her college classes that week. She was very surprised, seriously, when I had to tell her that she couldn't take classes during her 8-5 M-F work hours. You tell them work ours are 8 - 5 M-F but who knew you had to tell them you must be present to win a paycheck.
