I used to feel this way, a little bit. Then I had a family and was glad to have the financial security to provide for my family compared to so many others.

So, consider your heirs, and work long enough to build a nest egg cushion the devote time to having a wonderful spouse, making babies and enjoying them.

Note this advice won't apply for people who aren't interested in starting families. Even for those in happy marriages, not everyone feels that biological itch to have kids. And not everyone even feels the itch to marry.

  • Same here. It's not a biological itch for me, it's a desire to leave/change something for this world. In my case, it's [adoption|stepkids|nieces|nephews].
