Some of you already mentioned it in their posts, but for those who didn't: Who did it when you were in your 30s? 40s?
Striking out on your own is a lot easier when you're leaving your first or second job. When you've got family and/or are on your way up the "corporate ladder", the incentives for swallowing your ambitions and sticking to your current job seem bigger.
Which is kinda sad, as by then you should have a bigger appreciation of time, and what it means to waste it.
So, as someone who has his first 10 years of corporate work under his belt and doesn't want another 10 of working for someone else: Who's a late starter, too?
