Sounds like he's doing what must be done. Very excited for the author. We could debate professional opportunity costs or net worth deltas resulting from his decision, but it sounds like he was dying a little bit every day and always wondering "what if..." so this move is bold and beautiful and possibly necessary for mental health. GOOD LUCK, Chris Zukowski!
