Why?

  I enjoy food and shelter.

  I feel like Bender from Futurama. He was made with one job in mind: Bending. Its exceptionlly well paying considering I have no formal qualifications or the patience to get any. These two facts are enough for me to not even entertain the idea of leaving IT in general.

  The emotional stress of not having food and shelter is worse?

  These bootstraps don't provide the leverage you think they do. Changing careers is hard and most of them come with their own flavour of bullshit. Some people have dependents and can't afford to turn the whole ship halfway through their journey.

    Hey, if you’re committed to find specific examples where general ones don’t work, you’re certainly going to find an endless supply of them. I cannot, will not and never have claimed to be able to provide concrete help for individual situations. In the end you’re entirely free to choose your own way, whatever that may be. I guess it’s just that knowingly choosing permanent depression in exchange for perceived financial stability is an unfathomable proposition for me.
