Anyway, breh this is a bad idea. Not what you're doing necessarily, just the "having no plan" part.

You'll try to fill your spare time by traveling. It'll be fun. But 6 months from now when your savings has gone from 100k to 75k, you'll be thinking :patrice: "Ok I need to get back on my grind."

So then you'll tighten your belt, because you're a naturally thrifty person. Walking around aimlessly will be fun for about a month, then you will get bored, then you'll realize :merchant: I dun goofed.

So then you'll look into these "business opportunities" you mentioned. I'll just :mjlol: and let you figure out why that's a bad idea.

Then you'll try to look for another job paying the same as what you had in DC, only you won't be in DC you'll be in LA. And, well... you won't find it. So you'll compromise. You'll tell yourself, "It's all good this is the south I don't need that level of earning out here :smugbiden:." So you'll take a job making 55k but it's cool cause you have your family and because 55k goes much further out there.

And that'll be cool for a couple months... until you realize why you moved to DC in the first place. That's right. Ambition is going to bite you in the ass. You're going to realize that you wasted the last 10 years of your life building a career, only to throw it all away so you could move back home. You're gonna be surrounded by the failures from high-school who never had the gumption to leave like you did. You're going to realize... :snoop: I fukked up.

Anyway, this is all hypothetical but lemme give you some advice. If you're dead-set on leaving DC then leave DC, but don't go back, go forward. Isn't there somewhere other than back home where you've wanted to live?

Finally! I'm leaving DC, heading back to Louisiana for a few months. My house is set to close (selling$$$) in a few weeks. I'm taking the rest of the year off to live free, travel, visit anyone, trick off a little, plot and research business opportunities. Preparing and planning to move away from DC has been the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.

The only thing holding me up is my lease which ends July 18th. I was going to try and make, but I can't. I'm mentally exhausted.
