[quote=Anonymous]I have been living in the DC area for 10 years, working at a large gov contractor. Lately I've been getting tired of doing the "DC thing"--you know, paying a large amount of money for a small, old house with mediocre schools, huge day care costs, commuting, corporate rat race, and going after gov contracts year after year. The thought of doing this for another 20 to 25 years until I retire depresses me a lot. I have been spending a lot of time fantasizing about having a different kind of life--maybe owing my own business and living in a different place. Unfortunately, I have basically been doing the same thing my entire career and feel I don't know how to do anything else. Maybe I'm just going through a mid life crisis? Has anyone successfully broken away from the DC thing? How did you take the first step?[/quote]
