Finally got a job after almost 5 months of being without. Tens of thousands of financial damage to repair, but I can finally get started. My whole retirement is wiped out at fifty. Probably some ugly tax implications. But we'll make it.

Congrats on the new job!

Congratulations!!! I had to pull out a bunch of my 401k a few years ago as well. Now I have $50k at 50 myself. I feel ya. ❤️
