sitting around 40 with 2 teenage kids I can echo this, I think there is easily a counter factual where my net worth is somewhere between double and triple if I had not paid full freight on daycare for what amounted to 14 child years. when they were 7/9 covid hit and we haven't really paid daycare since, so it's hasn't really effected me at all, but certainly believable numbers.
