There are not many better feelings than working in a job where you have "f*** you" money and you can walk away at anytime. I've seen so many people who have to put up with complete BS from their employer b/c they can't afford to lose their job.

I learned this lesson a few years ago (and if you have been reading CP, I still am). One of the best financial decisions I ever made was picking up some freelance work on the side. An extra 60-70k coming from sources that aren't my job means that I can really leave or move or do whatever I want and it is incredibly freeing.
