Q&A: Should I Quit My Job to Be a Stay-at-Home Dad

Q&A: Should I Quit My Job to Be a Stay-at-Home Dad

#704: How do you make smart financial decisions when you’re balancing debt, investing, and big life changes … all at the same time?


Today, Brigham and his wife, ages 25 and 23, wonder: can they buy a $500,000 home AND still support a stay-at-home parent?


Next, JVR asks how to balance high-interest credit card debt, student loans, and a large cash reserve while planning for a future home purchase in the Bay Area.


Then we’ll hear back from Elizabeth, from Episode 611 (from just under 1 year ago), with an update and a follow-up question on how to approach real estate investing over the next five years when she’s unsure where she’ll ultimately settle.


We’ll cover all of that in today’s Q&A episode.
