How many months of living expenses would you say you need saved in order to quit without another job in place? How bad does a job have to get before you'd leave it with nothing else lined up? I would LOVE To be able to take that plunge. However, I just don't feel I can do that with a family to support, even though we could probably survive for 8 months or so on savings (and on my other part time job and my spouse's part time job). Even if I could be reasonably confident I'd find another job before my E-fund ran out, it just seems irresponsible to spend my E-fund this way. It might take years to bulid it back up to the place it is now. I'm not expecting answers to these quesions, just throwing them out there.

The idea about volunteering is a good one; it would be an interesting way to use the time and gain experience at the same time, without jumping into the mess of job-hunting.

Great post, and great ideas! Volunteering is a good way to gain experience that people overlook -- though of course it is necessary to have some funding in place to get you through if that's all you're doing. But since this is all about planning, we should have that in place ;) Spoken from experience. Great post, and great ideas!
