You assume your kids are going to be your care takers? What makes you think your kids won't move away?
I never said that, but statistically and anecdotally when you get older your first line of support is your family. When you have no family you have no first line of support.
Children are a shitty retirement plan.
Never said they were.
No but you implied that they were
Statistically and anecdotally, if you only make children so they will take care of you when you're old, they will ditch your sorry ass at the fist opportunity.
Never said that but if you don't have them everyone around you is going to die unless you're lucky enough to die early. With no kids and a government that doesn't give a shit and no money what's your plan? Lol
Are you just an inconvenienced millionaire right now waiting for your day to be rich?
You did say that, there is no other reason for you to make that comment. If you wanted to say something else, perhaps that was a bit of unconscious talking. Anyway, I am not selfish and psychotic enough to see kids as my retirement plan, so thanks but no thanks.
