[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is your kids' college situation? Already paid for? Can you get health insurance through your DH?[/quote] Kids college is probably enough with growth to cover in-state tuition and room and board. Yes DW has health insurance.[/quote] What does DW think about you taking time off? How secure is her job? [b]Given that you are a 48 yo male, you might very well not get another job.[/b] Are you in a specialized area where you could start a consulting business?

And you haven't answered what DW thinks about this.[/quote]
