Day care. I put my son in when he was about 3.5 months wasn’t too bad but it just gets too long for the kiddos. Hopefully you or your husband have an early schedule. Both my husband worked from 9-5 and worked in RTP, NC but the day care was in North Raleigh, NC near where we live which is about 35-40 min drive from work.

Nanny

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match).

Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
