I was in a similar position earlier this year, except I decided it was time for me to leave where I was at. I have decided to start my own small business. This was mentioned above and is what I recommend. Now I do have a woman that has decided to stick with me until I get on my feet. It takes time to replace your income and is very much like starting over at the bottom but is much more rewarding and I am pleased with my decision.
Also I will note that my area has seen little effect from the economic downturn before you say are you crazy to walk away from a job in this economy? We have a navy base very close and the government contractors are many. I also believe the economy is what you make of it, make some hard decisions now so when we turn this thing around you are in a much better position.
