In 2013 I took voluntary #redundancy and I asked myself a number of questions to help clarify the situation.
💡How long the lump sum would cover outgoings
💡Would that period be long enough to find another job
Factors that I considered that would assist the process were…
✅ Cash Flow Modeling
This will allow you to project forward monthly outgoings to see how long the cash lump sum will cover you.
✅ Pensions
Getting advice on where I keep my pension, whether I can transfer it out and if you’re over the age of fifty you be able to access your pension depending on your scheme.
✅ Financial Policy Review
If you’re paying into policies you should know your options within the terms and conditions i.e can you take a break from paying into the policies without having any impact on them should it get that far?
