Congratulations Drew! Great timing as well, this is the Chinese Lunar New Year, year of the Horse and there is a Chinese saying that “the horse brings success.” I hope this new year brings with it success for many many years to come!

Good going Drew! The farther you get from this decision, it will make more and more sense.
Ten years ago, I left a high-pay job with security, perks, and a tad of renown for a job with no salary, no benefits and just commissions. Best thing I ever did, wish I had done it 25 years ago.
You'll be whistling and singing. And enjoying your smokes. No stress mon -- every day is a mighty fine day.

Cool man! I love hearing success stories!

Well, as far as the guaranteed paycheck is concerned, don't worry about that. You built your business to the point that it can be your sole source of income, so you obviously know what you're doing! Good luck! :-)

And over the next two weeks your former employer is paying you to make your own money with your business. Win win.

Drew, well done! Your old boss must have been in fear. My wife and I own a small business also. You'll love reaping the rewards of your hard work and efforts!

Good for you!!
I decided a long time ago (20 years) that if I had to have
a jerk for a boss, I might as well be self-employed.
You won't regret it.

Such great words of advice and support. Thank you everyone. I appreciate it more than I can express in a forum post. We'll see what the future has to bring for us.

Everyone have a great weekend.
