Funny that this topic picked up this week. My wife has officially retired from our school district, effective Friday. However, she’s doing a year of the “double dipping” before being done for good at age 55 next May.
yesterday, I spent a good amount of time with calculators and my own calculations to see how well we can retire comfortably together when it’s my time to leave the teaching profession (probably in three years.). I was losing some sleep trying to do math in my head regarding insurance and pension incomes, among other things.
Thankfully, every calculator (and my own numbers) say that we are right on track and doing well to live comfortably. It sure doesn’t seem like it, though.
I never gave a thought to moving overseas, though.
