[quote=Anonymous]OP, what about putting this plan into place but looking for a job in the area where you'll be building. I know you want to get off the 9-5 treadmill, but I'm sure you can tough it out for another year or so. Spend a year living off just your husband's pension and banking every single penny you make (no exceptions for things you think you won't need/want once you're not working, everything single thing gets paid for out of the pension) and see how it works. At the end of the year you've managed to save all of your income and some of your husband's pension, then quitting is something to think about. If you were living pension check to pension check, you might want to consider working for a bit longer because you don't have much wiggle room for emergencies. If you have to dip into your earnings during that year, then you know you need to keep working, but you still probably will have saved some of your income toward retirement. All of this gets you closer to ultimate goal, even if you're not getting the immediate gratification.[/quote]
