Wagecage is no way to live. My portfolio is sitting around $30,000. I’m considering quitting my job, cashing out little bits when I need to and hoping it keeps going up. I gotta get out and sabbatical sounds like what I need.

Have any of you budgeted for this? At what point would you quit, if not just to take a sabbatical?

Don't be a retarded poorfag OP. Working as well as investing is how you secure that you will make it. Relying on dumb luck will end you. You have to have constant money coming in so that losses don't fuck you. And losses will happen in crypto if you are taking enough risk to actually make it in the first place..

I would advise only taking a sabbatical of 2-4 months, and then re-evaluate your situation, 30k is not a lot of money, even if it's more than what most have in their savings. Also consider the missed compounding growth from draining that money now and lowering your net worth essentially setting you back. You'll have to recover and the more time you are not making money, the longer you will be working later. It sucks but it's just how it is.

The best way to get a break is to be part of a layoff and collect severance.

yes 2mil is all anyone needs for a safe inflation adjusted $80k annual draw for life. If you don't know how to accomplish that with $2mil then you will never have enough money to retire because you suck at managing money. $2mil or $200mil you'll fuck it up and end up destitute again within a year.

If you move to the Philippines, with no aspirations, nor coming back to the states. 30K would do you just fine.

Dumb ass, you cant quit until you can make a livable amount of money on your investments. Cost of living is around 25-30k a year in most areas. Many super duper safe stocks pay out around 2% annually. Real estate stocks regularly pay ~7% annually, those fairly safe depending on the location.
