[quote=Amazin]From the start of your career set up an "FU Fund". At some point you will want to make a job or career change and you need the $$ resources to do so. For many years my wife and I saved one of our dual incomes. That allowed her at one point to quit her corporate job and start her own business which was soon successful. That success and the FU fund eventually allowed me to quit my corporate job and pursue more entrepreneurial ventures which also turned out to be very successful. After selling one company I was jobless for two years before starting another business. It too has worked out nicely. All of this is due to our having lived modestly for years in order to create the bank roll we needed to invest in ourselves without putting our family's needs at risk. We are now mostly retired but work part time and have plenty of resources to live well and give back.[/quote]
