I had a PT job for over 10 years. Worked M-F 9-5 at my FT job and served four times a week (Friday night, Saturday day, Sunday day and Monday night) to get ahead. When I met my now wife and started having kids, it was reduced to just the weekends.
Wife went back to school to be a teacher so the PT income was needed to make ends meet and support the family.
Thank goodness I don't need a PT job anymore as my wife works now (obvioulsy). She has a good pension and I've been doing RSP matching with my employer(s) for the past 15 years. Hopefully we can have a comfortable retirement. 4 young boys take a hit on the savings but the pension and RRSP matching continues
