re: Ever thought of just giving it all up..

Most people don't have the balls to do that.

But ask yourself, on a scale of 1-10 what is the absolute WORST case scenario that would unfold if you did just what you said? my guess is it's not near the tragedy as most make it out.
What, you're broke and have to move home and bum off your parents for 2 months. Big frickin deal.

If you're in a rut just go for it...don't wait for retirement the time is NOW!

Now ask yourself this, how hard would it be on a scale of 1-10 to get back right in the exact scenario you are in today. Again assuming the worst, my guess is moving back and finding another shitty 9-5 job would still be a pain scale of 4 max.

Do it do it do it
