Brian's new poker job

[Penguinfan]

If your not happy now then what do you honestly have to lose? You want to wait around until you ARE stuck in that job you have now? I remember people from my past who I considered a little lower on the scale than me, never really kept a steady job, moves around when the rent caught up to them etc... and while I can't say I would be comfortable getting to that point in life I seem to remember they were never as miserable as some of the people I work with, even some who make more than me. Yea they got their nice big house and 3 cars and all that stuff you see on TV, but they are putting in 50 hours+ a week just to pay the friggin finance charge on what they owe, how can they possibly be happier than my old friends who seemingly had nothing? Obviously finding somewhere in the middle of those two extremes is much better, but you get my point. In another thread in the general forurm I discussed where my wife gave up a 25k a year job to be a stay at home mom, we sure miss that money like hell, but we are much happier than we could possibly have been if she stayed working. Do what you can to be responsible but not a slave to the grind.
