I'm a safety engineer in the rail sector. I do safety analysis and write safety requirements etc to evaluate and reduce the risk of injury/death associated with railways.
I work from home also. Work for an energy consultancy based up north. I used to think "oh, yeah people are working at home, yeah, sure", but if you are disciplined (and realise that they can tell if you are doing nothing but sleeping) it is the best....no travel time to work, no traffic, etc, particularly here in England.
First thing I thought of.
@teamquestnorth giving you a hand with promotions in NY. 
Part time or full time?
@BrattMamley does I'd be happy. I could do this work from home or anywhere I decide to call home like my RV trip I'm doing and have infinite time with my family.
Part time as per the specs laid out in the OP. Want as much time to hunt, go to the range, and hang out with my friends and family as possible. I'm also pretty buddy, buddy with the owner already and could probably pretty easily pick up a part time gig if I wanted to.
A few million isn't fuck you money? You invest half of it properly and you shouldnt ever have to work another day in your life.
Nah if it was only a few million I'd invest a million right off the bat, pay off my house, pay off my car, buy a toy or 2, and continue working like I do now.
$2 million is about $1.2 after taxes. You invest $750k, use another $250k to pay off debt, and have $200k to play with. Shieeeeeet.
Wouldn't even need 250 to pay off debt and would only need 100-150 to play with.
$2 million definitely isn't fuck you money. Especially if you're in your 20's-30's and came from an average income household. I had an acquaintance win a tax free $4.4 mil about 10 years ago. Walked into a bank and said "I don't ever want to work again." They said it'll cost you $2 mil and got him into some investments, very low return, even lower risk, that are pretty much guaranteed to yield him $100k/year He then set his immediate family up, and bought himself a new house and car. He lives a very comfortable, but not lavish lifestyle. I'd estimate depending on how much you want to help out your friends/family around you that $3 mil is probably about the minimum in the "Fuck you money" department. Yes, he could have invested in more aggressive options, but he then also has a higher risk of losing it all, like happened to a bunch of people in 2008. People who laughed at his low yield investments 10 years ago are asking him for hand outs now, lol.
Thats awesome for your acquaintance. Thats the way to do it right there!
