I'm planning a cross-country move and need some advice. If I'm not approved for full time remote work at my current role, should I 1. Quit and cash out & reinvest (75k), 2. Take an early retirement (52 yo) at $700 /month, or 3. Do nothing and collect full pension ($65k /year) in 13 years?

You have Many options to consider
Think carefully about how disciplined you are to live on fixed income if you retire

I'd definitely be doing retirement with full time work in the new location.

Could you search for a new job and roll your retirement over with a new position? I see no benefit to retiring early, but no reason to lock yourself in with plenty still left to contribute in the rest your career.
