[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 623918, member: 60724"] Whenever I am posed with making an important decision that could impact my life or the life of our family and the decision is dependent on a set of contingencies that may or may not happen, yet I need to decide before the contingencies unfold themselves, I typically do a "best-case", "worst-case" analysis. I consider what decision I would make if I assumed all the contingencies unfold first in a "best-case" set of scenarios, then I list the pros and cons of that outcome. Then, I do the same thing again, but considering the "worst-case" unfolding of the contingencies. I do this because we can never really know what life will give us, but we should be prepared for the worst, and the best, and make your ultimate decision assuming results from either end of the spectrum. You may find that your worst-case scenario isn't so bad, or that the best-case has some downsides. Look at them both, way the pros and cons of each, then decide one way, the other, or somewhere in-between (if that is even an option in this case). Good luck! TJR [/QUOTE]
