    59.5 And Sitting On The Fence

    The title says it all. The basics: Annual expenses are around 90,000. That's the current fun lifestyle I feel like we could pull that back if necessary. Quite frankly the minimum to survive number is 3K (and that would be sitting at home everyday). DW Income: 31,000 take home so about 40,000...

    Software Development

    The part of the work that you describe is/was very much what I love to do. If that was the only part of the job (as many others have said) that would be fine. The politics, management, and all of the issues that can wear you down in just about any other job are there as well. I notice also that...
