Whether you have kids, would like to start a family, or have no plans for parenthood, one thing is clear: children in this country are expensive. Get Rich Slow Club co-host Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) has experienced this reality first-hand. However, unlike many other aspects of personal finance, Ana found there were few resources to help expecting parents financially prepare. That’s why she decided to do something about it. Enter: Kids Ain’t Cheap, Ana’s first book!

In this bonus episode, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) chats with Ana about what current and would-be parents can learn from her book. They also discuss the average cost of raising a two-child family, and ponder the “Motherhood Penalty”.
