Gives you around $45K after taxes. That equates to $15K a month for the 3 more months you plan to work.Even if you deduct COBRA, that gives you around $13K per month for 3 months that you work until retirement.That’s most likely a lot more than you’re making now.Now add in $5-$6K per month in pension. More if you’re old enough and planned on taking early SS.Looks to me like you’re losing at least $8-$10K per month by working. Talk about working for free. You’re actually losing money by working when you could be retired making a helluva lot more for those 3 months.</blockquote>
