[quote=Anonymous]49 -- I have had a pretty good career and basically have made between $200-$300K for the better part of 15 years with two great years of $1m. Now my situation is wonderful that I can sometimes work from home, rarely have to work over 40 hours and can make it to DD's high school games every time I want. But I am just so burnt out.  Everyone at my job is nice and I have it so good but it is a huge struggle to get to work everyday.  I am not depressed, my family life is really good.  I just do not want to work anymore.  I have saved for college for DCs but still, I cannot quit working at 49, especially when I have it so good, right?  But I hate being at work, the feeling has lasted 6 months.  How do I get out of this funk?  I have been doing similar type work my whole career, if I made a change I think I would take a huge pay cut, right?  Plus I do not think the grass is greener at a new job - I am pretty certain it is me not the job. DH works but makes significantly less than me, which is fine. I am not asking for him to pick up the load.  Who else at 50 feels like this and what did you do? [/quote]
