I think that you can not have an interesting life and be happy in your life when you think life sucks most of the time. After all, you spend a the very least 50hrs a week at work (including lunch and transportation). While I didn't have much financial responsibilities back then, I still had payments to make and the next Thursday, no pay cheque went in. Since I had to find money quickly, I duplicate my effort in job researching. After three weeks, I received about 20 job offers. The lack of money is definitely a great motivator! Cheers, FB.

I can't wait till I am in a financial position to do exactly that. I'd love to focus on other opportunities. Debt and family can be especially big constraints. But I like the spirit of your post in suggesting that we should make our career decisions according to happiness more than anything else. I think that quitting your job is a luxury to some extent.
