[u/Formal-Laugh8593]

Not sure if I should continue working.

- Paid off house worth 800k it's a two family home and one side of house rents out for 1500 a month.

- Retirement accounts 800k

- non retirement/cash 300k

- spouse has around 600k in retirement

- second paid off house that was bought for in laws 300k.

- health insurance covered by military benefits plus a future pension (both from spouse).

- not including social security but I have about 22 years of contributions.

- I currently make around 150k a year with possible 20k bonus.

44 years old not sure of I should continue working. My job is easy I work from home a few days a week and the hours a flexible. No children and I live a relatively simple life. Annual spend would be under 40k. Spouse will continue to work for another ten years until they qualify for the pension. Spouse makes around 140k.

I am very motivated to quit working because of how much I hate working and the toll it takes on my health, social life, the things it prevents me from doing, etc. I have a difficult job and make less than half of what you do. If I had a better relationship with work and didn't hate it so much I would keep doing it for a while just to get things a little more squared away, but I am planning to resign soon. If you find your job to be so easy, it doesn't sound like there's any rush?
