[quote=Anonymous]I vote no for two reasons: - if you’re doing “everything”, you’ll almost certainly want to move out for a year. Such a pain in the butt and a year of your life you won’t get back. - you said your spouse literally just lost their fed job. So you’re talking about a dramatic, retirement impacting expense within months of a dramatic retirement impacting change of employment. I would wait a year or two to see: how your finances change in the long term from your spouses early retirement (are you saving as much as you thought, are they spending more than they were while working because they’re “retired”), does your spouse want to go back to work and does that require a relocation, does your spouses early retirement make you both realize life is short and you should both retire earlier by cutting back on expenses and downsizing, and finally as kids get closer to college do your convos change about what you want to do and where you want to be.
