[18] with%%retirement plan+Fuller,still fearful@@ #PIP

  • Given …
  • I have a strong job seeker profile.
  • U.S. job market is age-friendly.
  • My kids are growing up just fine.
  • My marriage is not in danger.
  • everyone is in good health, esp. myself.
  • …. but still I have big worries:
  1. #1: 50% chance) PIP? another blow to self-image. I have “prepared” multiple layers of protection
    • financial impact? not much
  2. #2: 5% chance) my health? Low probability but high impact.
  3. Kids not doing great academically? Not such a big deal. They are generally bright.
  4. investment losing value? Most of my investments are in safe places – HDB, CPF, Beijing home …
  5. left-behind on the slow track (FOMO)? but (as stated elsewhere) why I don’t celebrate my beautiful wife …?
