Lifestyle Change Update
Well, that went sideways fast! Now that I’m divorced, and only working an adjunct position that basically covers rent; being a Stay at Home Dad/Anything, isn’t really an option anymore. Womp, Womp… With oil and gas in the toilet, and mass layoffs still happening, I don’t see that as a viable option for income, lol. I’ve pivoted towards social work, since most of my volunteering has been working with kids, working as a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate), and ultimately, wanting to do something more rewarding than oil and gas gigs. This is the perfect time to make that transition, so that is my main focus for income right now.
However, I did come out of the divorce with my retirement essentially funded, zero debt, and a nice little nest egg of assets to be able to use to create some income. We’ll see how that all turns out. Fingers crossed I don’t blow it all on dumb financial decisions… But seriously, that’s a possibility that I’m worried about.
