Would You Walk Away From Your Secure Job?
The world economy is in the toilet, unemployment is at a high, home foreclosures are at record levels, and the U.S. government recently released a report that suggests the economic downturn is headed toward a deep recession.
Probably not a good time for someone to walk away from a secure well-paying job with great benefits, right? You wouldn’t think so would you! 
But John Rogers is doing exactly that. His career is secure. He makes about 75,000 annually, gets a raise every year, and has full medical and dental for both he and his wife. But he has had it with the rat race, to the point that he’s giving it up to run his online business during very uncertain times.
You might applaud him for his determination, or you might think he’s crazy. Unfortunately for John, his wife is among the latter. She thinks he’s nuts and is scared to death of losing their home if he isn’t successful.
So, to calm her fears, John has asked some of his closest internet marketing friends to help him pad the savings account a bit. He figures if he has enough emergency cash to get them by for a couple of months, just in case, that she won’t be quite so nervous when he walks away from his day job for the last time on the day before Thanksgiving.
The result of the combined efforts of John and some of his closest marketing friends is a firesale of products you would never ever expect to see in a firesale, and a sweet batch of giveaway items, some that have never ever been given away for free.
You can join the giveaway here and you will also see the great firesale as well. If you purchased all of the firesale products on their own, you would spend about $400, but you don’t to with this firesale! This special offer is only available until Monday November 17/08. When the clock strikes midnight on that day, it goes away forever.

In the present scenario, it requires a great bit of courage to leave the job and take up working online, which is very volatile. Hope he proves right and convinces his wife.
