I think I am on the other end of suggestions... and it would be what I would have done if I had been in your shoes....

I would stick it out for a couple of more years... why

I do not think you have enough for the rest of your life... if I was going to retire in my early 30s, I would want at least $2 mill.... that give me cushion for what others have posted such as wife kids etc...

BUT, have you talked to your management to see if there is a place they can put you where you would enjoy your work a bit more and still take down your salary

Maybe you could do an overseas assignment... I did and it was one of the best experiences I had... and I was PAID to do it...

But, there are still many twists of fate that you will have in your life.. enjoy them all..
