    One problem is the fear of the unknown. People are happier in their prison than in the open world because they know the prison. They want to get out, they want to be free, but they are also scared of what will happen or they are scared of rejection. That is what keeps people stuck...at least for me it is.

I’d love to be able to walk away but I have debt that I need to payoff. I can’t pull out my 401k without penalty and don’t have enough cash on hand and other investments to walk away from my job that sucks the life out of me. I’m the meantime, I pray everyday that I get though another day and doing what I can keep my sanity and eat healthy.

    I know Ken means well but he doesn’t realize that not all dreams come true. Sometimes you throw your heart and soul into something and you fail to the point where you would be 100% better off if you had never even started chasing the dream. I am living proof of that. How I wish I could turn back time and never have tried.

    Once it makes you depressed enough, it becomes a brutal cycle keeping you mentally trapped and exhausted.
    Its exactly what companies want.
    This society is going to fail because the people on top are taking too much and giving too little. You cant keep people working when the reason for doing so has almost fully dissapeared.

      I think it would probably be same. She can take some part of her income to learn the skills she is is passionate about and move into that career. I think she gave also invested money in some index funds (I assume she didn't) so it would have compounded now so that she can quit without much fear of risk.

They're the only full time jobs with benefits. I'm at my parents house and need money after my job abroad shut down on a 1 day notice. Otherwise, I will have to take part time/no benefits work at a restaurant and save money to move out, which will be too long for comfort. Not much of a choice. if you do night shift they pay just $1 more an hour. I would do day shift, but I am pretty sure I'd be exhausted.

After doing that off and on for over 27 years in various IT jobs, it just gets old.
    At least she has a husband making a good salary to pay the bills. It's not all on her shoulders. She could work part time or take off to "find herself". Single women never have that freedom.
