Golden Handcuffs: Should I Stay or Should I Go?

Turning 60 this year felt like a milestone, but now I’m stuck in a dilemma. After decades in a fast-paced corporate job, I retired with a solid pension—only to jump right back into work as a manager at a local non-profit. The perks? Fantastic pay, unbeatable benefits, and a commute so short I barely finish my coffee. But here’s the catch: the job is so dull, I sometimes wonder if I’m just collecting a paycheck out of habit. The work isn’t challenging, and while the flexibility is great, I’m left questioning if I’m just staying for the money. My family and I are financially secure, so why do I feel chained to this desk by golden handcuffs? Has anyone else faced this? How do you decide when it’s time to walk away, even if everything looks perfect on paper? I’d love to hear your thoughts—I’m really struggling with this one. 🤔💼 #RetirementDilemma #GoldenHandcuffs #CareerChoices #JobCareer
