Brother-in-law and wife had twins when brother-in-law was 50. I thought that was fairly selfish. Now, he's wanting to retire from his gubbmit job at 60 and there are major children issues......his retirement pay won't increase much, but their expense are going to increase exponentially over the next few years. And of course, he expects his wife to keep working. She's fairly vocal about his finding another job, no matter what (he's kind of a lazy sort). I don't get what people are thinking. But if these folks made this decision knowing what they must know as professional adults, then I can't throw stones. Good for them!
