[quote=Anonymous]So sorry you’re going through this situation. There is more to life than work so I understand your DH’s pov and decision. Similar thing happened to my mom but she was 70 at the time, had a degenerative illness, and should have retired much sooner. But she was essentially forced to retire and that loss of identity (her career) was hard for her. Like others suggested I’d meet with a financial planner and/or accountant as well as with an estate lawyer (just for peace of mind). Is your husband going to be a retired Fed and get health insurance covered in retirement? For you I would probably try to ramp up your work to increase your salary for a few years. Downsizing makes sense too and see where you can make further cuts. [/quote]
