Life Advice

[jkf786]

Hey guys and gals,
I am hoping to hear from you successful fastlaners on what you would do in my shoes.
27 year old male, Master's in Mechanical Engineering, about 40k saved.

Goal: I want to leave the 9-5 and break into eCommerce and grow a business.

Options:
A) Leave 9-5 now to be able to pursue the eCommerce business full time. Network like crazy, and use all that extra time to work like crazy on becoming my own boss and starting a business.

B) Stay at the 9-5 and work some nights and weekends to learn what I can and try to get off the ground before I leave.

C) I have a job offer to become a Commercial RE broker. Work as a broker and eCommerce at the same time. I would greatly prefer this work engineering.
