Hey everyone, I'm literally shaking as I write this. I'm 35 and make $200k at what should be a dream job, but my manager is an absolute nightmare π’ Every day feels like emotional warfare. He screams, belittles me in meetings, and I leave crying almost daily. HR won't help because he's buddies with the executives. My therapist says I'm showing signs of workplace trauma. Here's the thing - my partner and I have saved $2.5M through smart investments and a lucky real estate flip. We could actually pull the trigger on early retirement! My spouse is supportive and will keep working, plus we both have side hustles bringing in extra income πͺ But I'm terrified. What if this is too risky? What do you even DO after retiring so young? Has anyone here escaped toxic work situations this way? I need your stories and advice! π #JobCareer #Career #EarlyRetirement
