#3 made a huge difference for me, from middle class to upper middle class with a simple "i do".
income more or less doubled overnight.
getting hitched is the single best thing i've ever done in my life. hands down.

#4 is only there for ordering.
if you wait to have kids until you've got your education, career, and marriage on track, then your chances of success in life are greatly improved.
if you have kids before those 3 big life events are in place, then you're needlessly putting yourself behind the 8 ball for no good reason.
if you don't want kids at all, ever, then simply don't have them.
kids don't improve your chances for financial success in life, but ill-timed children can certainly negatively affect those chances.
