OK-Actually I told my boss that I intended to resign last Wednesday, but it actually took until the end of the week to agree upon the terms. I will officially accept tomorrow morning. I plan to stay on until the end of March, in order to make a smooth transition to my replacement. It was with a heavy heart that I resigned from NewellRubbermaid. I have been with them for 9 years, most of my professional career. I have worked for 3 of their divisions and moved to 3 different states for them. I leave as an upper level manager within the finance department. My pay is very good and the company has always treated me well as I built a career with them. I guess that is why it is so hard to really be leaving.
We basically have 3 months to pack up our life here in Charlotte and return to Nashville, TN. Except that this time, it won't be a corporate move....it's on our dime. So we will be watching the costs a little more carefully I think.
I can tell you that I am very scared of the change. It is a big risk. Where will the money come from when I stop getting a check every month? Even though I have been involved in real estate for over 5 years now, this is the first time our livelihood will depend on it.
I have enough money saved up to ensure we can live for a quite a while and be fine, but ultimately I must be successful in real estate investing or it's back to the 9-5 gig for me. In the posts to follow, I will detail my current real estate holdings and experiences in order to catch up to date...stay tuned.
