I frequently consider this path, but I see a lot of people in your situation. I'd be putting my family, business, and self at serious risk. Is that path the right economic choice? I'm not exactly hurting financially right now. If I am increasing my risk of early death significantly by keeping at that pace, I find it hard to justify the trade off as a father and husband. cf. http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/features/important-sleep-habits http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/features/important-slee... After four years, you certainly have enough to make a decision about the long term value of what you're doing. What keeps you motivated to carry on at this pace? Is the fiscal incentive outsized to employment?
