Holy shit storing embryos frozen and counting them as dependants would be an actual life hack

Pretty sure that’s expensive as hell

So are actual children.

That's why I freeze dried mine and keep them in the glove compartment for use in the HOV lane.

11k to 15k starting cost plus 400 to 600 a year.

So when talking about thousands of dollars of tax credit it might have a good ROI. The initial cost could probably be lower if the actual quality doesn't matter to you.

I was under the impression the yearly fee was much higher, but maybe I was co flaring it with the cycle cost of IVF which can reach 30k.
