IB to Father Exit

Have you guys ever thought about exiting IB analyst program to becoming a Dad at 24 years old? I imagine you could live off 2 years of analyst base + bonus to raise a family?

Do you think IB properly prepares you for fatherhood? What’s wrong with being a Dad at 24? Let’s be real, who’s winning? An associate at BCP or a 24 year old stay at home dad?
