>A 2011 article that appeared in the Canadian publication MoneySense placed the estimate at $12,824 a year, which adds up to $243,656 over 18 years. Those numbers were then updated by the magazine in 2015 to reflect inflation. The yearly average rose to $13,366.

Why should I have kids when the cost of raising one kid in Canada to age 18 is $240,000 ? If I'm going to have 3 kids that would be $720,000.

I could buy a sports car, go on a luxury vacation every year with friends, have sex with tons of quality hookers, etc. Why the FUCK would I have kids when it costs so much and my money could be better spent elsewhere? Also consider that my kids would probably turn into degenerates due to jew brainwash that goes on every facet of western society.

No, life is pointless if you don't have any goals or are doing nothing with your time. The biological purpose of life is to have offspring, sure.

This thread is going to devolve into faggots who had kids thinking that their little autists are Gods gift to the Earth (like all parents), like always.

There are enough people on the planet, when the cheap oil runs out billions are going to die or wish they were dead. I'm not bringing children into the nightmare that awaits us all, civilization and the mental illness that has been western civilization is already in the process of collapsing. Enjoy your shitposting while you can, and be sure to read Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road'.

Fucking LMAO at having three kids when you make chump change. I make 96k a year at age 26 and would never even consider kids unless I made at least $150,000 a year.

Your kids are going to be going to public schools filled with degenerates, your daughter is going to be a whore and your son is going to listen to nigger music like Drake and Migos like all millenials do in 2017.

If you can't afford sending kids to private Christian school don't bother having kids, the world has enough degenerates already.

It doesn't really cost that much. They jus CLAIM it does, because they base child support on those numbers. They would claim that it takes 100% of your income, forever, if they could get away with it. Most of it is the housing component, which is ridiculous, because if you pay a mortgage, a lot goes towards the principal, which you recover when you sell the house. Around here, the difference between rent is about $200 for a 2 bedroom vs a one bedroom. So, $250 for rent and a share of the utilities, $300 a month for food, about $100 a month for clothes, say $100 a month for other shit - $750 per month. Which the man should pay half of. When I was grossing $50k, and netting about $40, I was paying about $10,000 a year for one kid. Family court must go, and everyone who worked for that satanic entity must be hung.

Marriage is another facet of kids I forgot to mention. Every marriage is a 3way: you, her, and Uncle Sam. The early years, you barely know Sam is there. A license for the marriage, and some minor changes at tax time. Other than that, it is pretty easy to forget all about him. Life is good.

But Sam is just being patient. The marriage hits a rough patch after your first kid is born. Fortunately, things get better. You both genuinely enjoy being parents, so a couple years later, you have a second kid. And a second rough patch. Only this time it doesn't get better. You double down, determined to make it work. But eventually your wife announces she wants out. Too late, you realize Uncle Sam is in your house. He has been all along. He drops his pants, and his massive dick: the $1 billion divorce industry -- rips into you.

He tears you apart. All your hopes and plans for the future? Gone. Your ambitions and dreams? Irrelevant. Your careful savings and investments? Sam pillages them without mercy. A decade of sweat and hard work, erased in an instant.

Your wife is long gone, but Uncle Sam still visits. Once a month, he shows up demanding money. Send the checks to the ex, or get fucked again. Next time he won't be so gentle. "Keep her happy," he warns you. "If she complains too much, I can take your kids, your passport, your career, and even your freedom."

Your kids still go to public school.

They will also be taught in public school to hate their race and culture, seems like a waste of resources to produce degenerates imo.

The most recent thorough modelling on the cost of raising kids in Australia, released last year by AMP and The University of Canberra, found the cost of raising two kids in Australia for a family on a middle income will set you back $812,000. For a higher income family, the cost rises to $1.09 million from the time the kids are born to when they leave home, while a lower income family can get away with spending $474,000.

It's honestly better that you don't, OP. I mean you specifically.
Children are like jazz - if you have to ask "Why would I have kids", you shouldn't have kids.

Facebook makes this interesting. Look at older people's friends. Read posts fo those who have kids, and those who don't. Those who don't are still posting about bands and music, and cool Japanese things, and shit like that at 40, 50, etc. Those with kids just seem much more adult, substantial, etc.

If you don't have kids, you stay a kid, basically. There are obvious exceptions to the rule, but it still seems to be a rule.

Most young men are doing the same thing though. Look at the drop in marriage rates and look at the studies on mens view on marriage:

>Pew recently found that the number of women 18-34 saying that having a successful marriage is one of the most important things rose from 28 percent to 37 percent since 1997. The number of young adult men saying the same thing dropped from 35 percent to 29 percent in the same time.

Because it's your biological imperative. If you don't have a plan to start a family by the time you're in your mid-20's, then you're broken in some way.

Amortized over 18 years with decreasing cost per child and considering the child's future earnings, no, not really. You won't live forever, and your children will help you in your old age. Not everyone is cut out to be a parent, but it sure as hell is the norm.

Of course he's superior - he fulfilled his biological imperative! Just like Tyrone fulfills his every time he kills a member of his rival gang. A man was designed to fuck and kill, you guys have no business judging him. In fact, if you haven't killed anyone before you are 25, then you're broken in some way. There is no greater indicator that a man's genes are 100% beta than him not killing those who wrong him or his loved ones.

If you're setting the bar at Beethoven and Newton for breeding, it's no wonder that you have such an inferiority complex. Look, it's clear that you're not fit to breed so I'm not going to try to convince you to. But for anyone else that's reading this that has actual promise... Get a degree, find a Christian woman with a degree, and build a relationship entirely founded on honesty. Prosperity flows from truth, and children can flow from prosperity, and I promise you that raising children is more fulfilling and more meaningful than any videogame or sports car.

This is short-sighted thinking. When you are old you will have nothing and no one, as you watch everyone around you die or go away. You'll be a lonely old man and when you die, it will be days, maybe weeks or months, before anyone even discovers the body because you died with not one single person giving a fuck about you. You choose this for yourself.

Are you a time traveler from the 1800's or are you just a dumb fuck? Whether you have kids or not, you'll end up alone in a nursing home. Your kids will have their own lives in another city, in another country, maybe even another continent. And even if by some miracle your kids will be such losers that they stick around like leeches and hold your hand while you pass away, you'll still die alone - they won't come with you. And soon nobody won't give a fuck about you. I don't know anything about the parents of my grandparents, nothing. Not their names, not their jobs, not what they looked like, not what they approved of or disapproved of, where they traveled etc. I can't even be sure that they ever existed.

And on top of that, if you can't find new friends among other old people, you deserve to be alone.

I was redpilled when I started looking around at college.

How do you view your life once you are 40+? Secondly, if you do have kids, how old do you want to be when they are themselves old enough to start a family?

In general terms, age 40 only the halfway point. You got an entire second half of your life to ensure you maintain happiness and purpose in life. It seemed, if you are lucky enough, that probably the proudest thing you could possibly have at that age is a handsome and cohesive family. If you are able to lead men, you are sure as hell as fuck qualified to be able to lead your family members. Betas and plebs need not apply.

Maybe it would be better if more people in western countries (whites in particular) stopped with the nuclear family shit and went back to the ways before? like with multiple generations under the same roof and grandparents and other family members more easily available for daycare and making use of resources more efficient and affordable. I mean if we want more white people that seems like the thing to encourage.

This is completely valid and I agree with it, but god fucking dammit I'm not giving up. I've had my fatalist thoughts and my beta suicide talk and my nihilist phase and my epicurean hedonism phase but I just can't shake my instinct. My genes need to go on.

With regards to civilization, whatever happens happens but I'm never gonna stop trying. I've had a lot of suffering and frustration in my life and I'm still here, a little bit better, stronger than I've ever been physically, fitter than I've beer been at 35. Sure I'm getting up there but you would never know it if I didn't tell you. Suicide is not an option. Quitting based on pragmatic financial analysis is not an option. I owe it to all the people who came before me. They toiled, they sweated, they slept in the sweltering heat, they fixed broken limbs and fought off infections, they followed the herds of game, they fled the marauding hordes, they killed, stole, scraped, clawed, gave up, and pressed on. I'm utterly cynical about our future and completely disenchanted with the present, but fools and thieves are responsible for that. It was once good and it can be good again. The world needs strong and virtuous people with the will that I can foster in a child. Suicide is not an option. The play isn't over. You skate til the whistle.

Compare the two belief structures of two different men. Here’s the first man, very well represented by many men in the manosphere and alt-right:

>“I have to get traditionally married because I have to have kids because I have to make sure a wife and lots of kids and grandkids are around me when I get old and die because only that will make me happy when I’m an old man.”

Let’s compare that to another guy’s belief:

>“I will be very happy as an old man, and when I die, as long as one or two close friends are with me.”

I’m not going to compare the pro’s and con’s of each of those two belief structures. You might find one stupid and one great, or both of them good, or both of them silly. That’s fine. I’m just here to show you the realities and logistics behind each of these two belief structures.

The reality is that, in the modern era and the Western world, the first man is going to live a life of drama, limitations, cheating, divorce, child custody battles, and all kinds of other chaos and bullshit. He will constantly be looking for his unicorn woman who doesn’t exist and constantly have relationships (and marriages) that blow up in his face.

Conversely, the second man is likely going to live a reasonably smooth life. He may get married, or he may not. He may have kids, or he may not. He doesn’t have to do anything other than to find one or two close friends when he’s in his 70’s or 80’s. That’s a much easier goal than what the first guy is seeking. The point is that it’s much easier for the second guy to be happy than the first guy.

Ps. Be very careful whose advice you take (mine included). We are not going to be there to deal with the consequences of your decisions and carrying the load on our shoulders, you are. Only you. Alone. The guy who urges you to marry won't pick the tab on your alimony and the guy who urges you to stab traitorous politicians won't be there to defend you in court. Follow your senses.

This would be ideal but I don't know how that would be possible. White parents kick their kids out at age 18 and the kids return the favour by kicking them into a retirement home as soon as possible when they get old. The poo in the loo and chink kids I know however live with their parents until they are 25-30 and established in their career then return the favour by taking care of their parents when they are old.

Im not arguing here. I tried to point out that while it seems like great advice in reality it leaves you just where you started.

At least that's how I feel. I got a similar advise as a teenager and I followed it.
But I find myself just as lost in moral possibilities as I was before.

My post might have come of a little emo. The point is basically:

That statement sounds smart and helpful -its really not.
>>
>>133436109
It is for me. I've known that I don't want kids since I was in my early teens and now all the shaming and pleading from tradcucks just bounces off me.

They give me advice, they try to convince me to get married, move in together with a woman, have kids etc. but they won't be there if I decide to do that. It's very easy to spread around advice when you don't have to deal with the consequences - I have to, because it's my body and my life. Some /pol/tard tells me to have kids, I follow his advice, my kid ends up becoming a tranny or getting gangraped by Muslims and the /pol/tard who told me to have kids won't even know it. It won't exist for him but it sure as hell will for me.

In the end, telling other people on this board to "get married and have kids" is on the same level as "kys". Maybe poster you told to an hero actually commited sudoku, maybe not. You'll never know and you don't give a fuck.

I understand the argument.
But how do you know that your idea of not having kids is just as planted in your head by people who don't care about you?

Im not arguing pro/con kids.

Im just challenging the idea that your/peoples ideas are actually their own ideas.

We tend to think that what feels good is us/our true idea.
And what feels bad just propaganda from people who don't care.

I know hedonism is your preference, so I'll give you an argument not against hedonism, but how hedonism itself can justify having children. These pleasures you cite are carnal pleasures, not much different than drugs. Chasing such pleasures make you no different than a rat constantly pressing a button that jolts their brain. Yet, the rat must always keep pressing the button and the pleasure it feels keep diminishing. The rat must find a source of a stronger jolt, which will either kill it or repeat the entire process. Quick pleasures that flood your brain with dopamine, quickly go away. What ends up happening is you live in a binary state of depression and ecstasy between button presses.

There is a true pleasure, that we have felt since the dawn of man. It is acquired through conquest. In an abstract sense, this can refer to any type of significant problem being solved. What it triggers is your feeling of control. This is known as "locus of control".

>The results of this study indicated that, happiness is positively and significantly related to self-control. Furthermore, self-control was the strongest predictor for happiness. Conclusion: It was also suggested that self-control is positively and significantly related to LOC.
http://archive.is/7Pq4l

It's a simple concept, the more control over your mind, body and physical reality that you have, the greater the pleasure and happiness you feel. This is why a great hooker is pleasurable, but only temporarily as you end up running out of money eventually. Yet, this is only one part of the equation, the other part is facing a problem. This problem may be a scientific one, a political one, a social one or anything else. The key fact must be that not everyone has the capability to solve it. All conquests require struggle, yet done enough times struggle in the pursuit of conquest becomes enjoyable.

But how?

I wasn't exposed to any sort of anti-natalist material, quite the contrary in fact. But I saw how shit my own home life was (alcoholic, depressed parents who hated each other, only coldness and distance between them). I saw how shit the marriages of men I knew were. I felt and still feel disgusted by babies and annoyed by young kids. I saw how women behave, especially if they are taken. And I've read tons of literature and statistics that confirm all my views. The only arguments from the opposing side are rooted in emotions and washed down with shaming language. "You'll die alone! Muh white race! Genetic dead end! Your great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather was raped by a pack of rabid squirrels, you owe it to him to reproduce! God will hate you if you don't! Only meaning of life is to reproduce like a fucking virus! Muh biology!"

You answered your own question.

Your environment is apparently highly disfunctional. So your research towards that matter is possible just confirmation bias. (Not saying it is)

Also there is the influence of Hollywood, internet, media etc. Sweden is a western country so im pretty sure your not getting Hitler family propaganda daily. Probably the opposite altough I don't like to make statements about countrys I never visited.

There are plenty of valid arguments for and against kids. But people are most likely to pick out what fits their feelings.

The greatest conquests of all take longer than a single lifetime. Such a conquest is known as building an empire. What do I mean by empire? Well, it could start with one man creating a family which then creates a kingdom which then creates an empire that controls an entire continent. It could start with one man starting a business which then becomes multinational, which then becomes a corporation worth more than a billion, which then becomes worth more than a trillion and controls various governments. That is conquest. A lifetime of struggle, a lifetime of growth and a lifetime of happiness. Such conquests require planning for what happens after your death, for building an empire that lasts forever is much harder than building one that collapses after your death. This is where children come into play, for your children can inherit more than just your material goods, if raised right your children will inherit your very own will.

In your last moments, do you want to feel the ultimate sadness in knowing your time is done?
Or do you in your last moments want to die with a smirk knowing you've planted the seed that allows you to cheat death and impose your will on society forever?

Don't buy your kid video games, smartphones, a car, and don't constantly feed him crap. Give him hand me down, make him read daily, and make him take up a paper route and later get a job at 16. Builds character. Also, make him go to Church (again, builds character) until he's 18. Make him work out starting at age 12.

they are really afraid of AGING alone day by day instead of creating a family to grow and age with, experiencing a complete life going from child to man to father to grandfather and becoming the patriarch of the household. if you don't have kids you will just age by yourself fundamentally, living a lonely life, with no one to really invest yourself in, no one to give you a strong reason to survive and stay healthy like having kids would do, and you'll probably end up feeling like you missed the very purpose of life in the end, a lifetime of past times and hobbies appearing like insignificant things compared to the living relationships created by your family life.

that said, i'm probably not going to have kids. it is a vicious circle - what is the point of life? to have kids. who then grow and reach the "what is the point of life?" moment and due to the fear of aging alone decide to reproduce and create a family around them. i think it's a bit pathetic to do that, and i personally think it takes a hell of a lot of guts to truly age by yourself, without creating a family out of thin air to be obligated to live with you and your foibles.

Every single traditionalist has inherited the will of great men, what they tell you to do is simply in pursuit of that great will. A common will means that some men have impacted society to such an extent that their wills have been permanently etched into the minds of all men born after them. However, not all wills result in perpetual empires, in fact all empires die. The reason their will doesn't affect you is because you've done an analysis that shows it to be futile.

There are people who start their own conquests and there are people who further the conquests of others, often long dead. Both lead to happiness in struggle, as there is a sense of ownership over the future. This is the synthesis of individualism and collectivism. The individualists initiate their own conquests and the collectivists further them. This is not a binary scale and pursuits of conquests can overlap.

Clearly you desire to live and clearly you are an absolute individualist. Stop thinking you're a collectivist that should adopt a great conquest, and initiate your own great conquest.

studies like these are stupid. I mean, we can just reality-check them, right?

if the claim is that each additional child costs an additional $13k/year, then we can do some quick reality checking with people with kids

say you're a family that makes 50k/year and you have 50k/year in expenses (you save nothing).

allegedly, after having one kid, all else being equal, you'd have 63k in expenses that next year.

and if you had a 2nd kid, all else being equal, you'd have 76k in expenses after a full year of that.

In fact, apparently, having 4 children means having 52k of annual expenses, every single year, that you wouldn't otherwise have.

well, I can tell you quite clearly: I have 4 kids, and I don't have 52k of extra annual expenses compared to the time in my life when I had zero kids..

>cost of raising one kid in Canada to age 18 is $240,000
That's not the cost, it's just what upper class faggots spend.
Leaf-tier thread.

One of those buttons on top-heavy's shirt is going to fly off that shirt like a bullet and take someone's eye out.
To answer OP's question, 1 million dollars is not a lot of money any more. Go make white babies, as many as you can. Have some fun in your life, then move on to the next phase - get married and have kids. I had a wicked single life, but it got old, and boring, and I got depressed. Made tons of dough, had tons of nice shit, tons of hot chicks... but I was missing something. What I was missing is a wife and kids. They gave me purpose in my life and a much better life than any single's life.
You will be an empty depressed shell of a man who is lost in this universe if you don't go marry a white woman and make some white babies.
