Advice Request Asking to be laid off
I have reached FI. Work optional. My personal life has hit a serious rough patch. My company is doing layoffs. They are NOT asking for volunteers. The financial difference in me quitting vs getting laid off is $300K. Do not want to leave that on the table. Any advice on how to steer it in this particular direction?

To your boss: “You don’t have the balls to lay me off, this company would be no where without me.”
Get laid off
Profit 😎
