    Not that I have a ton in bills but the thought is crossing my mind to just unload most of what I own. I suppose I'd keep some furniture, my TV, XBOX, the beds, select clothing and one vehicle. Then sell the rest and start over. I wonder if I could raise 10k by selling off most of my possessions. I've got to do more with my days, I can't continue to work here. I hate the job, my co-workers and the customers. Seems like the quickest way out is if I raise some funds to do my own thing.

    Basically that's my only motivation. I hate it here and I'm willing to give up 90% of my possessions to get out. I literally count down my watch every 30 minutes. From about 10am on I go, 7.5 hours until I can leave then 7 hours until I can leave, 6.5 hours until I can leave, 6 hours until I can leave....all the way down to the last hour of the day and then I try to leave early. I don't see how I can continue to work in a place where all I ever do is obsess about when I can leave. Life is too short to be this miserable. I can't stand the people I work with and the redundancy of how my days lay out. I spend more time avoiding people here then I do working. However I'm not willing to leverage the well being of my family to selfishly walk away without some kind of legitimate option.

    I think this weekend I'm going to take inventory on my life. I can then start by selling my two other vehicles. It'll probably be depressing to find at 32 years of age I've ac ulated very little.

    I'll wait here calmly for the whine patrol.

    I daily drive it right now. The car runs great but it needs attention. No AC and no stereo. The car is best suited as an occasional driver. Its good enough to daily drive but is more of a perfect car for a project. I was planning on selling it for about 6,500.

    You're still young so I say GO FOR IT! I didn't start working for my current employer until I was 34.

    I recommend that you go back to school and get a degree in a field that you can leverage into a good job. Put your wife to work in the meantime.

    You are never too old to go back to school. I'm going right now and I'm....well...older than you are. Good luck.

    I'm not going to waste my money on schooling. If I hand an extra 50k laying around I wouldn't be in this mess.

    I have two pairs of used shoestrings and an old copy of Beckett Monthly Football.

    Give the profits to the poor.


    Mid-life crisis?
    Not really. I just want to take my life in a better direction.
