Although the world can't just sit here and stop development and wait for people to move on. I am always so torn on how to feel about these types of situations.
I mean, a lump sum of money, seriously exceeding a relocation cost, may have a lot of usages, from donating it to charity to traveling around the world to starting something new you wanted to do but did not have the resources.
Being locked in the amber of the memory of the days past and the ingrained routine may be a fine choice, but I hope to choose otherwise when the time comes.
