.. do you just carry on working as normal? Do you hand in your resignation and go on your bucket list escapades? Do you just carry on with your 9-5 (or 7am-11pm)?

Just wondering what you all would do?

Depends on the prognosis and how much finance is in the bank. If I had enough cash and not long to live then work would be the last thing I would do.

As little work as possible would be getting done. Which probably means no notice, I would just walk away as if it didn't exist. I have a pension and some savings; no point in departing this life with any cash in the bank, especially as I have no direct family to leave anything to. As long as I was fit enough, it would be a bucket list extravaganza involving a lot of alcohol and fine dining. Stuff cycling too; more important things to do!

Is there something you want to tell us?

On a sadder note a close family member has just been told she has a brain tumor the size of an orange in the frontal area of the brain.
No prognosis yet ,and she has a 18 month old baby too.

Hoping she gets good news.

Work have us over a barrel unfortunately. As part of the pension package there is a 12 x annual salary payout in the event of death in service. This, and only this, would probably keep me working to the end because that would be a huge sum to help my family get on with their lives after I had gone.
Not a cheery thought though :sad:

My mother sold her house but by the time the money came through she was way too poorly to enjoy it. I wish I had got into debt my self and taken her to some interesting places before she got too weak. Always regrets.
On a side note I wonder if people who’ve got a few months to live ever go murderer somebody they hate and then just take an overdose?
