Re:I quit the tech industry, but don't know what to do next by WheelsAtLarge on Thursday December 22, 2022 @12:52AM (#34090269)
You are in an interesting position. It is very likely that you will quit any job you get as soon as you encounter difficulties due to your financial safety net. All jobs have difficult times, so you cannot avoid it. I have seen this happen a number of times. A woman I knew would get a job only to quit when she encountered a problem because she could rely on her parents to financially support her if she needed money.

I suggest you find a job in an area of interest and set some long-term goals beforehand for when you will quit if things do not go your way. Make sure you do not get caught in a cycle of getting a job and quitting.The advantage you have is that you do not need to prioritize salary as one of your top considerations. Don't wait too long. Before you know it years will have passes without you taking any action.
