Family Business Makes 7 Figures Net Yearly- Advice on What to Do

Let me start by saying I am in an incredibly privileged position to be in- my parents gave me a blessed childhood, private school, private college education.

For context, I am a sophomore at a target school (think georgetown, mich, cornell) and currently working at a re pe shop. My family business does government contracting and nets in the mid 7 figures yearly. I am seeking advice on how long to stay in corporate as my parents want to retire in the next 10 years and eventually off-load the business onto me
