“What to Expect” in Crisis

Austin Ruse has an incredibly thoughtful piece about demographics and What to Expect over at Crisis. My favorite graph:

We had our first child seven years ago and my wife left full time employment. I estimate her missed wages in those seven years to be roughly half a million dollars. There’s less coming in and plenty going out. The cost of our daughters’ grade school — we now have two little takers — comes in at $12,000 per year, almost ten times what I spent for yearly college tuition.
