It's been a while since I last posted. The last time I posted I was preparing to sell my business. Now that everything is complete, I really need some more advice, and some assurance.
To refresh, I recently sold my business.
I am in a state of flux, as I am unsure as what direction I should head.
I am 43 years old.
My house is 100% paid for. 400K
I currently have $660,000 in an IRA. (Most of this was rolled over from a profit sharing plan)
My wife has $31,000 in her IRA
I have a total college savings of $140,000. I have two kids, so thats $70,000 each.
My current Savings account is $2,400,000.00
My current yearly expenses are around $110,000.00, to $115,000.00
I have zero debit.
I am trying to understand a few things.
1. Can I retire now?
2. If I can't retire now, how much more do I need?
3. I feel I have done a good job to this point in saving money, and preparing for retirement, but at the same time this isn't something I normally discuss with other people. Any thoughts?
4. I have a job position lined up that will pay me 100k per year, plus insurance, profit sharing etc..
5. As exciting as the new job opportunity is, I am burned out and not that excited to go back to work. At the same time, I can't take a year off and have this same opportunity.
6. I am just wanting to get peoples opinions on my situation, and thoughts and retiring early.
Thanks for reading this, and taking time to respond.
