life is short. working on a regular job to build $300k net needs long time! for an averaging job, may be lifetime, most may end in the middle even broken because of job loss/economic downturn,unsavvy investment mistake....

I'm not in trading, but I didn't seriously consider quitting my staff job for the risk business until I was
1. making 1x my annual salary working part-time
2. had minimum 300k net worth
