Hey, Amy, Melissa, Jeremy and Jake!

I was just watching the news when they had a report from somebody or another that claimed it now costs $270,000.00 to raise a child from birth to 18 years old (excluding college).

They contrasted it with 1960 when it only cost $175,000.00.

No wonder I can't retire!

You people owe me!!

love, Dad

  3. I want me $270K. From my records, your investment in my future was closer to $108K and change. That's a balance of $162K plus interest. Pay up.
