Well, it's official

I've signed a sales agreement for my practice. I have high respect for the guy who's buying my business and I'm thrilled that what I started 27 years ago will continue to grow and prosper, and that my employees will have a great new boss and continued employment. (is everyone singing that Who song in their heads right now?)

This coming tax season should be my last full-time one where I work 70 hours and 7 days a week. I still need/want to work part-time for several years to come, perhaps at the wine bar in the town where I live. They've been struggling to find reliable employees who won't steal from them or screw up their inventory.

Excited for the next chapter of my life and for being less stressed. I can't believe it all worked out exactly as I always hoped. I'm not much of a planner but I've always been lucky as can be.

Don't worry. I'm not leaving this forum. You all (y'all) are like family to me!

Congratulations Abby!  I think you're too young to retire, so working in a wine bar which is a dream job of mine, you will still be serving up advice, but these clients may listen.    Getting tax advice from a bartender will have a whole new meaning, how lucky are those customers.

I probably am too young to retire and may work part-time for Accountemps or some CPA firm when I finally move far enough away that I don't violate my non-compete. But I only want to work 2-3 days per week with large blocks of time off to travel... before we get too old to enjoy it or even do it.

Thanks! This has made me think about who will be on this forum in 10 years. Young'uns like @RitaB and @Possi will be, but a lot of you are older than I am.

 

I thought we covered this. I am closer to retirement age than you are! I will not be working in 10 years. But for now, I'm still having too much fun to retire.
