I am 46 and hoping to retire at 55. The next two years are really critical for me - within two years I should be able to get my house paid off and have college 100% funded for my children.
The issue is that I am in a very high pressure job that pays really well, with stock and bonus checks likely to be very good for the next couple of years. At the same time, the job is really wearing on me. The politics and pressure have finally got to me after 17 years. If I can hang on for two more years, i can probably afford to step into a lower paying, lower pressure job and still be on track for retirement.
Any advice on how to get through the next couple of years?
