Abstract

We investigate an optimal consumption and portfolio selection problem with a job switching option. The agent with CARA utility can choose between two types of jobs: one with high labor income but high disutility from labor, and the other with low labor income and low disutility from labor. We use the dual/martingale approach to obtain closed-form solutions to the agent’s lifetime utility optimization problem. We also obtain some numerical implications.
