I think the comment made by the Financial Philospher was right on the money as well (excuse the pun). Isn't it great though to have the drive, energy and opportunity to do 'things', otherwise we may as well sit in a field all day with a bucket on our heads and thats ok too if that resonates. For me it's ok to get over-excited with things and to play at shaping things up the way we would like them to be as long as we know when to put the brake on when and if required and know that we don't have to take it all too seriously. Then we can get involved with 'things' without becoming too entrenched and or fearful that we won't be able to 'pull back' from them.

But you are right it is not practical for everybody to just quit in their present jobs and move to another place. If I could afford to do it, I would have done the same. I also value my health and time with family.
