Hi,

The following sentence is from a native speaker. Is it correct and is there a better way of writing it?

He will be taking some time off to determine whether retirement or a new opportunity is in his future.

Thanks,

MG.

I'm not a native speaker, but I see nothing wrong with it. It's a perfectly readable, clear sentence in my book.
:)
