Alright here are the specs.
26 yrs old
Married
Dog
No Kids
Lease for 5 months
Boatloads of student loan debt
Otherwise minimal debt
So here is the skinny, I really hate it here in Indiana, wife does to. We have mostly been miserable in our almost three years here. Sorry, but Northern Michigan is where its at, grew up there, family there, infinity hunting and fishing spots. This isnt to bash Indiana, its just not for me. Particularly Indy.
I LOVE my job. Wife is happy in her job, and soon it will be 100% work from home, which is nice when we have kids.
Now when I say miserable, I really mean it. Super depressed, just kind of numb to everything nowadays. s*** keeps piling up, sick dad, sick grandpa, work injuries, new nieces we want to see more.
The only way out would be to just walk away from my job, I have nothing lined up currently, looking, and my boss is aware I will EVENTUALLY leave, and I have his full support.
We have a plan, where I just walk away in a few weeks, with what I would be paid out, and what we have saved, on paper money wise we would be able to maintain status quo through January, even if I dont find another job until then.
At what point does the need to be happy outweigh the need to be smart? Its dumb to walk away, have the lease, obviously need income. But the more we talk about what we need to do to be happier, the more we just keep coming back to walking away.
I am way too rational to do it, I want to provide for my family.
Anyway, this was partial vent, partial real question.
Thanks.
