No, principled would be refusing to sign the exit agreement and forefeiting the money, then writing the book.
replyBut how are supposed to know in that moment that's what you wanna do? Aren't there different ways to be principled?
replyIf you become massively rich from working somewhere, then suddenly discover your conscience when you're fired, you're bitter, not principled.

replyLet's say she's bitter, not principled.
Now what? What's different now?
I'd suspect bitter people who embellish and tell falsehoods in an attempt to smear the thing they're bitter against. At least, more so than a principled person would.
replyEh, all the same to me in the end. I think if you try to avoid all bitterness in life there won't be much left.
replyYou could break the agreement and return the money. I doubt anyone could argue that a one time payment can gag you for the rest of eternity from certain speech.
