All together, you should have: sick check, sick bank and vacation.
One strategy to maximize money, not days off would be to retire Feb 7th. Take OCV money(option A) the first 5 weeks of the year! Now, you are talking about leave Feb 7th if you sick bank was full with a YTD check over 500 hours plus B fund contributions. And you could have even added money to your 401K.
Good point. That's more like $120k counting the B plan contributions.
In any case I expect to see another retirement push next Jan/Feb.
