The right time to quit a JOB

I think 5 years of savings is plenty. Go for it, and see how you do. Even if it's just for 1 year to see if you can handle the lifestyle!

I would say jump into it now. The downturn of each economy births new "everyday" millionaires.

Some really nice answers in this thread.

For me the nature of your current job is a key factor. Freelancing is (generally) a lot more flexible and can be scaled up and down as required. Much different conversation if you're in a corporate career and the answer is 0% work or 100%.

Can you keep your top x% of clients (think 80/20) and use the additional time to start your fastlane venture?

Absolutely agree here.

I'm an aspiring freelancer and my reasoning lies behind giving me an income on my terms that I can rely on while building up a fastlane business on the side. Your fastlane business could even be an extension of your current freelancing activities.
