[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I were in your shoes, OP, I would leave. $5.8 is plenty. I'm a big law partner with young kids and likely won't have that option, but I've seen too many colleagues in their 50s die of heart attacks, have breakdowns, or become alcoholics or pill addicts. It isn't worth it if you have the option to leave. If you get bored you could always do volunteer work. Personally, I'd downsize and travel. You never know when health issues will make travel difficult or impossible. We have friends who are on their second sailing trip around the world - seems like a better way to spend one's 50s than answering client emails 12 hours a day.[/quote] So true- so many big earners are too macho to admit the very real risks of health issues, mental health, stupid divorce etc. Big salary looks great when you can get it; but it doesn’t come cheap.[/quote]
