How does the child-free DINK lifestyle fare in old age? We answer your questions
April 25, 2024
On April 24, Globe and Mail reporter Salmaan Farooqui answered reader questions about his feature on how Canada’s child-free couples are spending their time and money. Farooqui spoke to several DINK (dual-income no-kid) couples across the country about why they made the decision to not have children and how it shaped their lives and financial decisions. Some go on regular lavish vacations, while others are setting their sights on becoming mortgage-free.Globe readers asked Farooqui questions about what child-free couples do in their old age, how to find a financial planner that understands their situation and the outside pressure they face for not having kids.
