[quote=Anonymous]This is going to sound bad but in this phase of my life work only means bridging the gap between now and retirement (53-62). It's a safety net plain and simple. We don't need the money but if something happened to dh's income, I would like the ability to be able to rent an apartment myself (or help my college age kids rent one), I'd like to be able to take out a car loan if I had to, I'd like to be able to cover health/dental insurance for myself and the kids through my job. I also like the idea of hiring a house keeper and yard maintenance which is something we've never splurged on before. But, like you Op, I'm not all that stoked about the idea of working in a demanding, boring, isolating and no fun job. There has to be some level of enjoyment to it. 9 years in that environment? Oh, heck no. You need to find something sustainable. [/quote]
