I've been thinking about this on and off for awhile and youbet's post reminded me to start a new thread on this topic:
So... here's the question: If you were within a few years of achieving financial independence and being able to retire early, how many days/months/years would you be willing to stick it out with a sucky job to be certain of achieving FIRE, rather than switch jobs and have the risk of it taking a longer amount of time?
Just remember that you are on the job because that's where you choose to be. You're not there because 'the boss" is making you do it or because "Mega-corp" is forcing you. You're there because YOU are choosing to be there. When you whine about a job, remember that you're whining about a situation you're voluntarily subjecting yourself to.
FIRE - it's great!
