I retired from my dream job when I was 57.....21 years ago and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.....you can never get that year back....time is the most valuable thing in the world.... I wouldn't give up a year of my life for a 75 million dollar Ferrari GTO....are you nuts ???
No one is promised tomorrow...I make 5 to 10 times as much as I made working as a Engineer but I would rather live in a single wide without air in Baton Rouge than go back to work....
