Yes. Started saving &amp; investing in high school.
Same reason why I studied before having a job. You need a base &amp; fundamentals on which to build a life, no?

In retrospect I guess it was “just in case”. At the time I didn’t want to worry or stress out when the time came: have a good foundation on which to provide a future family a comfortable life. 

Not sure it was dedicated… just saw it as prudent. Investing for the future.

I’m a man. A single man. Nobody let’s me near children unless I’m related to them or they’ve known me for years. 
There is a daycare I support financially two blocks from my flat. But sending a wire transfer once a month is “meh, just another expense”, not very fulfilling. I do try to visit my nephews as much as possible (live in different state) and neighbors will sometimes ask me to babysit once in a blue moon.

It seems you’re putting way too much into your assumptions about what being a parent at “x” age is like.  My brother and his wife became parents of twins at 50.  My brother retired at 60 and has the privilege of spending a lot of time with the kids without the “working parent” stress.  His wife has been a stay at home mom from day one.  They live conservatively, no real extravagances. The kids are well-adjusted and happy.  (I think my brother and his wife are better parents than they would have been had they had kids in their 20s, 30s or 40s.) So, I think common notions of when one should and should not have kids are just off-base.
