If you only care about yourself go for it. I guess it’s somewhat sobering realizing you’re gonna be alone and your genetic material will be a dead end.
I have 3 kids 3 and under and probably got 4 hours of sleep last night. Wouldn’t trade it for the world. My kids are not treated like a drain on my potential investments.
Sure I can’t do my hobbies all the time but I can take my kids fishing and kayaking. The trips are shorter but fulfilling regardless.

Sounds like you desperately needed to have a legacy, and got kids as a substitute for that. And as an insurance for your old age.
But sure GP is the one who only care about themselves.

I don’t think your post makes you look like you’re the one who cares about others unlike who you’re responding to.
My “genetic material” is a fucking dumpster fire. I struggle daily with incurable mental illness and I’m also a carrier for several debilitating diseases. I have chosen not to have children and nothing of value will be lost.
