Based on your post you have set up to go at 56 or 65. Why not some compromise in between that will increase the total monies that are available and not consume what is available so fast. Have you spoken to an attorney about disability for your wife? You would be surprised at what can qualify as a disability and what a good attorney is able to do in that area.
This is the compromise.... I can continue to work at a reduced 200 days a year and keep my full time status including health insurance. We've reduced our living expenses as much as possible, that's not what is going to eat up the money. Our bucket list will eat it up...
We have checked with a lawyer. DW will qualify eventually, but that will be too late for what we want to do. Right now we can still do it all but it diminishes each year.
Everyone here is helping us!!! Thank you!!! Please keep it coming. We need the affirmation and the reality checks. Thank you!!!
