AP RedNot working

Doubt anyone would still be looking in regularly, but after a couple of months of chillin maxin and relaxin I decided to not take a buyout and just sit on my rear collecting a check for the next 3 years.
Could've taken about 10 cents on the dollar to get out clean and start my own firm/work for a competitor or work in the finance sector in general but I don't see that being wise.
Starting my own firm would require cash and the banks are holding onto the bailout cash like it was theirs ( WHICH IT IS NOT). Working for a direct competitor would allow me to hurt my former company by taking clients who may have some loyalty/generally like or trust me, but I think it would be a lateral move in terms of cash/job satisfaction/et all. And finding a job as a banker/analyst/accounting is hard enough at this time not taking into account I would be taking less money to work than sit at home with my guaranteed contract.
Just wanted to write that out to justify my decision to myself and it looks pretty damn rational as I sit here writing it out.
