Like you, both through college, both married, both w/ houses and basically self sufficient. Bank always open for cars, furnaces and emergencies still.
Then I looked at net worth, age, achievement of goals and told company to piss off. They were nice and paid me full separation, bonus’s etc for full value cash out.
Could of done unemployment but I’m not that kinda guy. 7 yrs now with a couple of consultant gigs early on. But they aren’t worth it as I have to maintain a certain level of income to offset insurance taxes etc.
Living the dream on the original nest egg still
