I am leaving a full time position with a state agency.
In order to get paid for unused sick leave, (about $7000) I must set up a life time annuity with $10,000 in cash (I know- it's odd)
The annuity must be life time - paid over 20+ years.
I have NO interest in setting up an annuity that may only pay $75-80/month however, I never like to walk away from money.
We don't depend on the $10,000 - but I can not use the sick time and will lose its value.
I'm hoping others here have insights or experience with this scenario.
What did you do ? Why ?
