[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he can’t afford retire NOW and live the rest of your lives comfortably, your family addicted to spending and that’s why your husband is working at a job he’s sick of.[/quote] This. Unless most of the money above $180K went entirely to savings, then you’re spending a lot more than you realize. The fact that OP seems so confident they can do this part makes me think she’s not budgeting very closely, certainly not using an app. It would be daunting to anyone who knew the numbers - not impossible but daunting. Also his salary fluctuated a lot. We had a very strong economy for law firms the last few years - if a significant portion of that comp was tied to shares rather than guaranteed income, that number could go back down in the next couple years. UVA? Get an entry level job with benefits and $85K. You’re not unemployable you’ll just have to actually pay your dues to move up. [/quote]
