Those who finally exited the grind after the vicious one-more-year cycle, what was the trigger? Do you regret your decision? Do you feel like you have enough? Are you spending your time the way you thought you would?
I’ll let you know when it happens. 😅 I’m solidly in OMY syndrome.
I think I’ll stop in the next year or three, but that might just be the one more year syndrome talking.
Why I think I’ll do it:
- Decreasing benefit to additional savings, I’m looking for more buffer, not lifestyle creep
- Less interest and satisfaction with work — as I’ve climbed the ladder it’s become more politics and fiefdoms, it’s where the money is but not what I enjoy
- I’d like to spend more time with my kids as they get out of toddlerhood, I work a lot and have to travel several times a year, it’s not the best balance and I doubt I’ll look back and wish I spent less time with my kids
