i would talk to your family (significant other/kids) first before you make any moves, not a bunch of people on a tech forum. remember that whatever you do will affect your family first. so if you fail, you better come to the realization that you could lose your family if things go south. i'm not trying to tell you what to do or scare you... follow your dreams if that's what you want to do, it's your life. just look at the WHOLE picture first, both achievements and consequences that your decisions will bring. a wise man told me, "you can do anything in life if you are willing to accept the consequences". remember that your family are the ones that will have to go on this journey with you, for good or for bad, the people on this forum aren't going to be there if things go south no matter what they might want you to believe.
