Then they killed the competition and there was nobody left to stop them doing to you with ads what the farmer does with geese to make foie gras.

I've put a shoji screen behind my workspace for these kind of situations. One client was really paranoid like that.

The average household will move into a larger and more expensive home for raising children. That already adds a few hundred. Driving to school, various after school activities, camps and stuff adds an additional tank of gas. Once boys are teenagers, they'll eat more than an adult, and adds a few hundred to the groceries. Driving education or in USA their first car isn't free either. Not to mention medical costs.

Like they say here, small children, small worries. Big children, big worries.

In my country, it costs €250,000 per child. That €10k per child is like 4% of the total. That's counting until 18 years. It gets worse when they go to higher education. Kids are damn expensive.

Easter is always on the Sunday after the first full moon of spring. Blame the moon for being not in tune with the year.
