A quiet place to think it through

Should you quit, or stay a little longer?

This won't give you a verdict or a viral score. It does two honest things: it works out how long your money actually lasts, and it lays your own answers back out so the trade-off is clear instead of looping in your head.

Part 1

The money — this part is real arithmetic

No modelling, no guessing. Just runway: your usable exit pool divided by what you'd spend after leaving.

Savings you could live on $20,000

Cash you'd actually be willing to burn — not retirement accounts.

$0$150k+

Monthly expenses $3,000

Rent, food, debt, and any insurance you already pay while employed — the real number, not the optimistic one. Don't include post-quit health coverage here; that's the next slider.

$500$12k

Likely income while figuring it out $0

Freelance or part-time you'd realistically bring in. Be conservative — zero is fine. (Put severance in the one-time amount field, not here.)

$0$10k

Health coverage cost if you leave $0

Marketplace/COBRA premium replacing employer coverage; only applies if you quit. $0 if N/A.

$0$3k

One-time amount when you leave $0

Net lump sum — severance & PTO payout minus exit costs. Can be negative.

−$20k$60k

Optional: months you'd expect a job search to take Not set

Your own estimate — shown beside runway as context, never used to compute the band. Leave at 0 to skip.

0 (skip)18 months

Realistic monthly saving if you stay $400

What you could actually put aside each month by staying. This replaces a guessed figure with your real one.

$0$6k

People who depend on this income

Including you. Doesn't change the math — changes how much margin you'd want.

Part 2

The job — your read, not a diagnosis

These don't get turned into a fake percentage. They get reflected back so you can see the shape of it.

How to actually tell if you can afford to quit your job — the honest math behind the runway
You decided to leave. The first 30 days. — what to think about beyond the math

This tool does real runway arithmetic and organizes your own reflection. It is not financial, career, or mental-health advice, and the job-fit sliders are your own judgement reflected back, not a measurement. If work is seriously affecting your health, talking to a person you trust or a professional is worth more than any tool.
