I don't know any women personally that make a habit of proclaiming they won't drink and proceeding to get trashed. It's a recurring event with almost all of my male acquaintances. Then again, I am not a big drinker at all. Maybe it's just the love of alcohol in general that confuses me. Link to comment

D.B Cooper Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Congrats dude! What a great time in life it is when you get to marry a smoking hot blonde! look out tho, next come the kids! my wife and I decided before we got married we weren't gonna have kids. A couple weeks after the wedding she said she kinda wanted one. A couple months after that, she got pregnant. We just had our baby girl on Wednesday! How life changes after marriage. For the better of course! Congrats!! Link to comment

We're going to wait for about a year before we start trying. I'm very nervous about that. I would be just shattered if I found out I coulent have kids. Link to comment

Did you always want kids but were ambivalent? Did you really just change your mind? Link to comment

Did you really just change your mind? I do a lot of travelling for my job. And I love it. ive got a dream job. My wife has an awesome career as well. Together we were planning on retiring at 40-45 without kids. After the the wedding we spent a lot of time with family. We did a lot of travelling to see everyone and spend a decent amount of time together. I remember a certain convo with her uncle one night that I could see in her face that he convinced her she wanted kids. (I won't go deep into, but along the lines of 'you can have all the money in the world, but it doesn't mean a thing if you don't have a family to share it with.the feeling of creation, growing old and watching it grow, etc.....) she started bringing up the topic a lot. Personally, I always wanted a kid, but when I started seeing how awesome my life was and where it was going, I didn't want anything to get in the way of that. I always sort of felt a bit selfish for thinking like this, so I guess It wasn't hard to convince me. With a bunch of meeting with my bankers, I figured out a way to still retire fairly early. And let's be honest. My job is a lot of work, but it's what I've done since I was 5. I'm not going to quit when I retire. Might as well just keep getting paid for it. Link to comment

The trying is the best part!! there has been so much research done and so many ways they can help you if needed. It might be a bit expensive but pretty successful. Dont smoke, and wear saxx. Your boys comfort is more important than you think. Haha Link to comment
Apples Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Favourite? I can attest to that. Congrats! Link to comment

Can I ask what your career is that has you thinking of retiring that early? Also how old are you (ball park is fine) . I'm quite curious, you have peaked my interest. Link to comment
