11 Years Later - Imminent Retirement and OMY Thoughts

Thanks so much for your post Ben! I wanted to quote the whole thing in my reply but it seemed excessive to do so. :)

I quoted this section because I strongly agree about going out on a high/responsible note. To be honest I am dreading going back to work on Monday Jan 5. But it will only be 4 more weeks. I will give my manager and my team whatever I can during that timeframe. Then I can walk away feeling honorable and not burning any bridges.

I also very much agree about the importance of time. I'm getting close to age 52 and if I want to do all these projects and interests that I have in mind I will eventually run out of energy or health to do them!

I wish you all the best in navigating your own burnout and finding your exit at the appropriate intersection between financial stability and mental health.
Huge CONGRATS! on your decision to pull the plug!
