I'm still going in circles about it! @ Frugalwench: Thank you for the compliment. I consider my writing my weakness, so it feels great to hear otherwise. Glad to hear you are working to find extra money to put in your 401k. @ Moneytummy: I think I might need more time too. Luckily there could be a second opportunity at the end of the year. @ Mike: Of course I knew what your vote would be! I have been pretty open to change my whole life, so I'm surprised to see my own reluctance about "taking the plunge". @ MIT: That is terrific advice. I promise I'm trying really hard to decide! I think I may still need one more piece of information about our refinance though. @ Funny about Money: That is a terrific idea. I have been running bare minimum survival calculations, it could be a very valuable tool for everyone. I have been waiting to chime in… I’m still going in circles about it!

This is along the lines of my recent rumination on planning an alternative budget in case of disaster (such as a job loss). Much, much scarier, though! I've just been worrying...you apparently actually have the circumstance in front of you. Gasp! Wow!

So if you have all the information you need, go with your first instinct.

Good luck. Unfortunately, I would not be in a good position if that happened to me, so I'm hoping for more time to get things in order. That’s a big decision to make!

I'm now 55, and starting over with my retirement. I'm trying to get something going online to make money to put into my current 401(k) at work. I think you could make some money online. You're good at writing. Give it a shot! I lost everything due to illness several years ago. I’m now 55, and starting over with my retirement.
