  • How did you do it?

    Don't have kids.

    (Wife not working for 2 years [no maternity pay], both of us moving to part time [by choice] rather then 5 days a week of nursery/childcare, 4 years of nursery fees [extortionate in SW London, even 3 days a week], etc. Adding all of that up comes to more than our outstanding mortgage balance. Wouldn't change it though.)

    This. Also means not needing a larger place. Is there a term for the paradox of "if only I didn't have my pesky kids to look after, I'd be able to finish painting their rooms in this large house I've bought to keep them in"?
