ParticipantIf your paying that much, more than likely for most people it pays for one parent to stay home (at least until they are school age).
At least it’s a write off.
ParticipantThat 1 Mil figure is probably closer to the whole package,
food, insurance, housing, college, etc…After that Most are probably half that, a few are twice/three times that.
ParticipantI don’t think the 95% spend that much.
They grip when they spend 50-100K getting their kid through college.
But they don’t spend 1.3K per kid a month at least the crowd I run with (call me cheap LOL).
ParticipantOur Software Development manager probably spends that much on his kids as well but he lives in Beverly Hills.
I guess if you have a home worth maybe 5-10 Mil it’s kind of expected.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]From what I understand, $4,000 for 3 kids is about right.
[/quote]That’s like a House payment in the better parts of CV LOL.
Anyway if your rich enough, spend your money how you see fit.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]Yea, bring it back in 10 years. We will see how much cooler it is to live closer to the urban core. And yes, there is still land to build closer to the city.
Civita in mission valley, or temecula. The choice is easy. Remember those urban housing products didn’t exist before.[/quote]OK. let see in 10 years.
ParticipantI never said working remotely = not working,
Just that it’s for the few, not the many.
Some can do it and they are so good no one says anything, others are let go the next purge cycle.
ParticipantOK, we will see how that works, I will try to remember to bring this link back up in 10 years,
The Millennials we have hired recently don’t seem to be complaining so far, they seem happy working (sometime 6-7 days a week during crunch time).
Anyway I don’t think the next 10-15 years will be all that much different than the last 20. We will see I guess.
I do know a few Doctors and nurses, after working a grueling 24 hour shift, they need at least a day to recover, it’s brutal. Anyway good luck.
ParticipantI don’t buy that, I know a lot of pilots and talked to more than a few air-traffic controllers, it has always been this way (I have been a private pilot since the early 80’s BTW)
see Pushing Tin, very funny movie, part of it was about working Christmas etc..
ParticipantNurses, Doctors, Police, fireman, Grocery, Plummers, Judge, Road workers, construction, anyone who has to interface with the public … 90% of the jobs out there.
Pilots and Air-traffic controllers often complain about their tough schedules actually.
ParticipantOK but anyway IMO no matter how you slice it is still just the few, not the many.
I just hope the majority don’t get their expectations trampled by reality.
ParticipantOK, but I find it hard to see how flex time and flex location in most occupations other than tech would even work.
ParticipantThese people are boomers.
This has been going on at several firms I have worked at since the 90’s.
The Top 5% performers can write their own ticket, others who are not in the top 5% performers, not so much.
It all sounds good on paper and you may even be in the 95% performers and get away for a while, but sooner or later the bean counters take over.
ParticipantAverage age of retirement has only increased by 4 years since 2002.
Right now it’s the same age as it was in 1965.Actually it is a year younger than in 1965, in 1965 the average retirement age was 64 years old, right now it is 63 years old.
Anyway flyer If I may, how many years into your career did it take you to get into the Captain seat of a Jumbo?
