My costly oversight-any advice appreciated

[nairv]

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. My husband did something similar with a company he left. He changed jobs right before his stock vested. About 2 years later the company sold, and we found out about all of the money we lost-enough to pay off the house, send the kids to college, and set us up well for retirement. It made us sick. I feel your pain.

Thank you so much for sharing that. It does help to hear that you are not alone. I am slowly finding my peace with this. Money isn't everything. This was just the kick in the pants I needed to get myself in gear. A very very hard but valuable lesson.

We got through it by looking at the positives. At least we lost the money because DH had a new JOB. In this economy, that is something to be thankful for. You seem like you have a good head on your shoulders and know what is really important in this world. We learned so much from our experience. Hang in there.

WOW, $25,000 after only 3 years? I don't think I'd ever leave that company.
