If I had the means and spousal support at home (Ie not buying so much stuff all the time) I’d try to retire too but I need more than cat food and a fidget spinner to keep happy. Still have a few years left but depends on investment returns and if I can keep working making a decent wage. Sadly no DB pension or DC for me. So it’s all on me to save/invest. Although not considered “PC” to talk about there might be some future inheritances but one should not rely on those. Heck look how long Chucky had to wait and he’s already got one foot on a banana peel.
At my present company we have had a lot of attrition both at home office and field locations. Definitely seeing a big cultural shift. Hoping HR realizes it’s both people leaving some poor leadership (not all) AND managing wages. Am presently a contractor so hard to decide about loyalty having personally suffered by being loyal and still getting door despite being a higher achiever. At the same time with big change comes opportunity.
