I have more than six months for sure. I'm confident I wouldn't run out of money, but may regret leaving a high paying job. thanks for the feedback (guess I should have given a little more information)

My recommendation would be if you truly want to program, then learn to program and use your learning in your domain. Solution for problems that arise in that domain and see if they can become products. To me this is the safest and most effective path to not starting over completely.
