Get married? I dunno bout that. Kiss half your wealth goodbye.
Children? You can be jailed for not paying child support on imputed income. That's imaginary money you don't have.
I don't agree with the person you're replying to, but I think it's fair to point out that you don't need to get married to have a life partner. With marriage rates declining, younger generations are not seeing it as a necessary step in a relationship.
Get married, start a family. Stop trying to find meaning in tech or alcohol or money. Good luck.
