Sounds like you are having a great time :). I'll check out the blog. Are you spending the entire cruising season on the boat when you go to the Bahamas? Any particular boat items you'd recommend for the trip? e.g. one thing we love is the aquabot waterbottle sprayer. I thought it was...

The boat is a 1980 Tartan 37 Sailboat. We have been working on outfitting the boat and have been doing mostly day sailing and a few longer weekend type trips to Catalina Island. The Catalina Island trips have been overnight sailing to either Avalon Harbor or Two Harbors. Staying for a few...

We are almost 2 years into our work contract and things are going well. Our net worth has climbed to ~$2.08M (not including any RSU's or NQO's) as of this morning and the stock price on the RSU's and options has gone up from ~$58 to over $100 since authoring the original post. We still plan...

I think the two years will go by pretty quickly. We've lived in this area before and had a blast.

I'm taking about 3 weeks off prior to the move. 2 weeks in May and then another separate week for a family commitment. The relocation handles all the packing/moving/shipping cars etc. pieces of the move. We'll likely be in temporary housing for about a month when we get there as well (paid...

Wanted to provide an update on this post. My wife and I had made the decision to buy a boat and sail the Caribbean. I was about 2 weeks away from turning in my notice at work, but they approached me about moving back to the west coast. As a kicker, they threw in a bonus of 4 months base pay...

The wife is 30. We are unsure whether we want to have children. Returning to work in the exact same position probably wouldn't be an option if I took a longer sabbatical and not sure I'd like to continue working for the organization at least where I'm located now. I've moved a few times for...

That's the rub, the stock may go up it may go down. I've made a pretty penny as the stock has risen over the last few years, but that may or may not be repeatable. Don't really know.

I edited the original post to make this more clear. The 8k is actually $8k or the current value of the option based on the grant price and the current share price. All of these values are pre-tax so they would be lower once Uncle Sam takes his cut. I've exercised all of my vested RSU's and...

The unpaid leave idea could be a good one if I could potentially extend it enough to get 2017's RSU's and Options. Not sure if the company would go for it, but I guess if I'm leaving I don't have anything to lose by asking. The grants do get accelerated by death or disability, but I agree I...

I have a large number of RSU's/Options at work that I am looking for some advice on. Information on awards. RSU Vest Date Jan 2016 - $20k Jan 2018 - $23k Oct 2018 - $124k Jan 2019 - $19k Jan 2017 - $29k Total RSU's - $215k at current stock price of 57.85 Options Value on...
