William A. Galston, former deputy assistant for domestic policy to U.S. President Bill Clinton, spent decades analyzing poverty data. His conclusion: To give yourself the best chance of success, do three things: graduate high school, wait until you’re 20 to have children, and marry before you have your first child.

if you graduate from high school
marry before having a child to have that child after age twenty only eight percent of the people who do so
will be below the poverty level fail to do it in that sequence and seventy nine percent will be below the poverty level
