Father's First Year


Chapter 17: Parenting Economics
Author: Vincent Iannelli, M.D.

You may be caught up with the idea of getting your baby's nursery ready and buying a crib, or maybe you already knee deep in diapers and burp rags, but don't forget to think about your family's finances.

Do you have a will made up?

Do you have enough insurance

What kind of expenses can you expect this first year?

In addition to these topics, chapter 17 of The Everything® Father's First Year Book discusses the following important topics:

  • first year expenses, such as baby formula and diapers
  • whether you can get by with one income or two
  • childcare options, including going to day care or hiring a nanny
  • paternity leave
  • health insurance
  • life insurance
  • disability insurance
  • starting a college fund

This chapter also discusses the important financial issues of planning for retirement, having an emergency fund, and planning for future expenses.
