Kids are expensive. In a two earner household daycare is a HUGE chunk.

When my kids were in college it was a 25k hit per year for everything. I'm sure its more now.

I think that 250K per kid is pretty damb accurate. I know I spent at least that much.

And if you do one earner (as we did), I gave up that government job so many of you mock me for and the calculation for pension (starting over at the bottom). IMO, kids are very expensive. 2 in college at the same time is a bummer and then the middle wants to do 5 year MS so more overlap when its the youngest's turn. That saying - I don't regret a thing - motherhood has been the greatest joy.
