First Retire, Then Have Kids

I’ve been broadening my blogging horizons a little bit and reading what other people are writing. One blog that caught my eye is Frugal Dad. I like the title and the great variety of topics he has covered over the years, in a nice easy-sipping style. The Frugal Dad is a guy who started out mixed…
