Just like in your story, I submitted my resignation letter last night. I was also about to say bye bye to the corporate world permanently to pursue making money doing the things I really like. I am overly optimistic that I CAN DO IT!

My boss didn’t accept my resignation and he wants me to think about it before I take the big plunge. Thank you for sharing and making me wake up to reality that I must also know how I can get back up in case I fail. Your blog is very helpful.

nice and inspiring posting…i truly believe in having much fear on facing financial freedom but the result is worth it…right now i’m still in active and semi-passive income status…it may be hard sometimes but i know when i get the hang of the passive income the active income will be given up…your experience has given us hope that either in corporate or business world there is always tomorrow to start all over again…congrats…

Very inspiring, Fitz. I had my last resignation letter a year ago, and it was 9th one. Right now, I am looking for a job but I hope I can find a better source of income instead. There’s a great difference between the two, you know.

Anyway, I really plan to have my last resignation letter as my last one. But if I have no choice, I will be back in the corporate world but temporary only.

Maintaining a business is now my target because I know it’s my only way of escaping poverty.

Thanks!
