Hello ladies and gentleman,
I’ll try to give the really short, simple version...
My wife and I are high income professionals with no debt, including a paid off home. We have about 1.35 in taxable and 650 in retirement accounts (all vanguard index funds 60/40). We plan to let our retirement accounts grow and not to maneuver to make any early withdrawals. Our annual spending is between 50-60k and we don’t see that changing. That does not include health insurance since that is paid in full for both of us by our employer. We are both very fit and healthy.
I have the opportunity to leave my employer in 15 months with a payout of 160k and full health coverage for both of us for two years.
We both want to leave our jobs and take advantage of the current opportunity to leave. We don’t know what is next. It’s possible/likely that there would be some paid employment in our futures either part time or full. Or... if our financial position allows it, maybe not.
Is it crazy to turn it in and give up our incomes to move on?
