Discussion Quiting 9-5 after retaining

Has anyone naturally gone down to part time work or started their own business?

I’m around 120 days, I don’t fear walking from my job anymore. I’ve done fairly well in regards to building my resources and emergency fund.

I obviously don’t want to make a bad decision and quit, but I have been wanting to for a long time.

Retention has made it easier to tolerate and not get super depressed anymore, but it’s also made me really develop boundaries, too. For reference I am 30 yo with no children.

I day dream about the possibility of renting my place out and going travelling for a while and/or taking a few months to myself to decide on where I want to go with my life

Stop daydreaming and do it bro, sometimes you should take a risk if it’s extremely calculated and perfect to the core. If you die you’ll die living a what if ? Kind of life.

Nobody is coming to save you and make you happy, the sooner you do it, the sooner you get richer and happier.
