Money's not everything. Part of the reason I had to quit being an attorney was my out-of-control blood pressure. It's was starting to creep up again at the retail job, but luckily, that was about the time I hit the tipping point money-wise. Everybody's got to decide for themselves what they can live with and what they can't.Suzan Hardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600258874634909988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384027358660553150.post-10826684726479497382013-06-05T20:15:45.982-04:002013-06-05T20:15:45.982-04:00Thank you for posting this information. Very helpf...Thank you for posting this information. Very helpful for the state of mind I'm in right now. I'm so tired of working at a job (day job) that I see nothing ahead but counting down the days until I can retire. More than 13 more years and the fact that I'm too tired when I get home to do something I really love to do--write. I am definitely not getting any younger and I feel that I'm wasting my life at a dead-end job even thought it does pay the bills. You are so right when people are comparing working at home versus working outside the home such as gas expense, lunch expense, clothing, etc. My husband and I work at the same place so I am actually on his insurance (we work for the state at a college) so that wouldn't really be an issue for us. However, right now I do not make nearly as much as I make at the day job with my writing which brings me back full circle. If I only had more time or more energy to focus on writing and get more out there, then that money difference could possibly change. Oh, well, thank you again for posting this information.Angela Hood-Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17985240493993599473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384027358660553150.post-83426362897875149182013-06-05T18:56:50.451-04:002013-06-05T18:56:50.451-04:00Very nice to read this stuff.
