What are the ways you've found, you mentioned the nanny, what other ways are there where having money gives you happiness when it comes to kids?

We kind of touched on this a little bit, but what are the patterns you see amongst people you know who are rich and happy versus rich and unhappy?

To what extent have you seen this as a pattern? A bunch of friends I've spoken to are in a position where only one of the two is working because they're like entrepreneurs or they're rich or something like that. And I also have friends where both of the pairs are working and they seem way more stressed than the pairs where one of the parents is working.

Does that hold true for the pattern you've seen as well?

Yeah, I think that would be interesting. A lot of the reason for going after entrepreneurship or financial freedom and stuff is back when I read The 4-Hour Workweek, it was my motivation when I was in like med school and beyond was, okay, cool, I'm optimizing for freedom so that I don't have to do things I don't want to do.

But increasingly, I'm realizing that like, you know, I know I want to have kids fairly soon, hopefully. And I know that actually the thing I'm optimizing for is the ability to, that's what the freedom buys you.

The freedom buys you the ability to hang out with the kids when they're young, for example, or take vacations with the kids or whatever, hire help so that like both parents are not completely stressed or things like that, that are not sexy sounding.

And there are not like the, you know, work on your laptop on the beach kind of digital nomad dream, but the ability to buy that freedom to then invest it in a family. Yes. That to me feels like part of the point.
