and i know i said this to you months ago BA, but i hate the thought of deciding not to have children based on how it would affect my finances/portfolio/retirement age.
i know it's just a difference of opinion, and i respect your view.
i never planned on having children, but the time came that i realized i did, and i think as long as it's something you want to do because you feel it in your guts (as opposed to it being "what you're supposed to do"), then it can be way more rewarding than retireing at 45 or 50 could ever hope to be.
that's just my two cents.
