I (42F) hit my Coast goal recently. I’m in big tech and facing the threat of being laid off every quarter. I’ve found myself not so much anxious about being let go, but more what I would do given I don’t necessarily need to replace my current income. Health insurance is the key concern for me and my young child. Help me brainstorm ideas for working in coast! I hear people of this sub say they take on seasonal work or part time work - how do you handle health insurance? My only “fun” idea so far is part time barista (I genuinely love chit chat with strangers and moving quickly) at Starbucks for the insurance. My background is project management and I’ve thought about consulting work if picking up a 6-12 month project at a time were an option. What attracted me to coast in the first place was being in a financial position to work when I feel like it, but I never invested time thinking about what that would be! Help me day dream please with your real life examples.
