[quote=Anonymous]I am struggling with a potential life change.....
In Ohio, 50 years old, Mfg. Engineer w/MBA, and now the Director of Operations for a medium size International company.  I've been with this company for 25 years...In my current role, I am responsible for the legal entity which includes 3 locations in the US, making automotive parts.  Promoted from Site Manager to this Director role 18 months ago.  Wage is $180k per year, which is good, but it's a rat race.  Lots of Corporate drama, it's no longer fun for me.  I am performing well, and have good performance reviews, my boss is OK, but the pressure is high and the job never ends.

Married with 2 kids, ages 9 & 11.  My wife has accounting degree, but currently stays at home to run the kids around to sports, etc.  
We have $2.5M in retirement, mixed among 401k, Roth and Regular IRA.  $100k in cash and $40k in HSA.  No debt other than 10 years left on our home @ 2.625%.
I am seriously wanting to leave in 3-6 months.  I would still work, but at something less hectic.  Potentially my wife also goes back work as well.
I dont want to make a mistake.  
Maybe I'm burnt out.

I'd appreciate any thoughts and opinions.
Thanks!  [/quote]
