My mother died in January and that has left me an adult orphan at 53. My plan HAD been to retire at 55 but lately I have been so sick of everything at work, my health is none to good (diabetes, heart issues), I am just tired, plain tired. I know that part of my restlessness has to do with my mom's death but I am now seriously thinking of leaving at the end of 2013. I do get a pension and paid medical but by leaving 6 months early I would lose about $148 a month. Still, I feel like the money is not worth the time and peace that I will receive. The pension will be approx. $5675 a month before taxes if I leave at the end of 2013. I have some debt, the car and a loan. Don't own a home, have no children and spouse.
Just wondering if anyone else said - that's it, I may be short just a bit but I am going for it? I can hardly stand to be at work now, let alone here for 15 months and 9 months SOUNDS so much better! Thanks!
