How much is time home really worth?



With kids, it's near the top of importance to me. You can't get those years back. I could be making a lot more money than I am now, but being home everyday soon after the kids get home from school is invaluable to me.

Everyone is different though. I've never had much interest in climbing the corporate ladder.

My dad was always working late or traveling when I was a kid and he made a killing. So much so that he retired at 48 years old. At that time my sister was out of the house and I left a year later for college. To this day whenever I talk about my job, he says he would trade all of his money and would work until he was 70 if it meant that he was able to be around more when we were younger. It's pretty sad.
