Choosing to have children is a deeply personal decision that incorporates diverse practical and emotional factors. But once you decide to become a parent, it is worth taking the time to think about how this change will affect your financial life. From the costs of pregnancy and childbirth to paying for a college education, parents face a variety of planning challenges and opportunities. Rebecca Pavese, CPA, returns to the podcast to offer her perspective as a financial planner (and as a mom). Join Rebecca and host Amy Laburda as they talk about how to budget for new expenses; what tax breaks are available to parents; why wills are crucial for parents; planning for ART, surrogacy or adoption; and much more.
