I was once a "software engineer" in Silicon Valley. I recently came to the conclusion that I wasn't learning anything new in my present job, and that the job market being what it is, I was more or less stuck doing what I was doing, until the Big Layoff From The Sky happened. That, or the Big Outsourcing From The Sky. Same thing, really.
Having saved up some money to last a single person for a while, I decided to quit my job, move to a cheaper place, get the joy back in my life, and start doing stuff I wanted to do, not stuff I was getting paid for.
Now I own whatever I write, and am free to learn whatever I want. And I want to learn how to write games. And I don't have to worry about making rent every month too.
