Know the feeling...I'd been laid off twice before I went out on my own. Looking back now I smile because being laid off was the best thing that ever happened to me.
I'm chuckling about your posts because it's exactly what I would do with my wife every day while I was mulling over going out on my own. Round and round I would go with the arguments for & against. Finally my wife told me to HTFU and do it (best wife ever by the way).
