Your comment isnt taking the economic system in any way.

It all depends on where you are in terms of income and what your perspective future is, relative to your foreseen expenses.

Ideally, if you were to buy a house or flat, you'd have about half of it taken care before having children (remember the golden rule of not spending any more than 40% of your income on housing);
The car would already be yours (you don't need an SUV for one or two children, a normal hatchback is fine);
Schools and healthcare depend a lot on where you live;
At some point, the kids grow and are less of a drain on you... hopefully becoming self-sufficient.... 30 years later... Tongue
