Shortened to DINK? I don't know, but they've been known as "dual income, no kids" for a long time.

There is also DINKY (dual income; no kids yet) and DINKER (dual income; no kids; early retirement).

Early retirement is seniors and no kids yet is no kids.

I would read ER as no kids, no plans for kids, and using all the saved money to retire at 50. 'Yet', I would read as 'might want to have a kid or two, but maybe start at 35 or so.'

In other news, Tennessee is also a hotbed of liberal experimentation

Ive used DINK for years, I thought I came up with it, but i suppose most couples who have dual income adn no kids probably thought the same. I liked being a DINK. To bad the chick I was with was a nutter.

So you are saying you are now an OINK?

I guess we're DINKERs then. Although since my husband is a professor he plans on working as long as his health will allow, which could be another 40 years.

Me, on the other hand? Yeah, I plan to do my 15 years in IT (the average shelf life) and then haul *** back into writing novels.

Sorry, but it made me chuckle.
