Read along with the original article(s) here: https://marriagekidsandmoney.com/having-a-baby-changed-financial-goals Quotes to ponder: "Money is still important, of course, but spending time with my family is now my top priority." "I'm no longer worried about hitting a specific savings target at the end of each month, and I've relaxed my budget significantly since my child was born." "You don't need to worry about a new baby's retirement fund for a while, but you can get their financial life off to a great start by helping them create a Roth IRA as soon as possible."
