For the past 21 years, my husband, Lance, has been dedicated to the same company. He started at the ground level as a contract equipment installer, and when he left, he held the position of Chief Relationship Officer. With 23.5 years of marriage under our belts, Lance's departure from the company marks a significant change for our family.
We've always known the possibility of job loss or change could happen, and have worked over the years to be prepared for that possibility. As Lance began more seriously contemplating leaving, we understood the importance of preparing ourselves for this major life transition. Big life changes—whether it's marriage, welcoming a new baby, switching careers, going through a divorce, or retiring—require careful financial planning. Here are some steps we took to prepare ourselves financially for this significant shift:
As I write this, it's only been a week since Lance bid farewell to his office and drove his final commute home. Already, the transformation is evident—he's less stressed, happier, and brimming with excitement for our future. While uncertainties still loom, we're eagerly embracing the next chapter of our lives. Our years of financial planning have laid a solid foundation, and we're ready to navigate whatever comes our way.
