Hi fellow Mustachians, I'm in need of your advice and wisdom. What should I do with my life? (I was never a fan of broad, ambiguous questions in school either ;))
A little about myself...
Name: Gavin
Age: 27
Married with 2 kids, 5 yr old and a 3 week old (no need for congratulations, for you will feel my icy, sleep-deprived stare through your screen)
Income: 45k/yr (includes income from one rental property)
After-Tax Savings Rate: 50%
No mortgage on either home nor rental house (they were both small and cheap)
Job: Production scheduler for a Manufacturing firm
Job Satisfaction: Low
Education Level: Bachelor's in Business Admin. (My 20 yr old self is feeling my icy stare right now for making that (in-)decision of majoring in business)
Assets: Pretty much the 2 houses I own. I'm guessing they're worth $100,000 total. I just started investing with Vanguard funds VTSMX too(I just added that to cut out half the potential replies)
Debt: None
Interests: Many; woodworking, blacksmithing, hiking/camping, living abroad (love Central America), all sports, exercise science, Christianity, animals, finance, music (guitar/mandolin/banjo/electronic)........and obviously frugality and financial independence.
What should I do?
Go back to school (and back into debt) and get a degree in a field I'm more interested in and/or may (potentially) increase my future earnings potential?
Weather the storm where I'm working at (the job sucks but the people and the work environment are great) and potentially retire in the next 15-20 years?
Finally call that number on those late night commercials and get "enhanced" to start a lucrative adult film career? (Please just comment on the first 2 options, I only attempt to be humorous to mask my own desperation and job depression)
Any advise/wisdom would be great. Thanks for reading.
