Need a new Lifestyle Plan. Heck, I need an INTERVENTION!

I had $30,000 ready to invest a year ago......HAD!  Where did it all go?  Grandmother's funeral, other unexpected life expenses.

That freaking job of mine.  That dead end 9 to 5 life and time waster at a New York City agency.  My savings are gone, I'm 46 but still feel like a 26 year old intern with no progress in my life.  They keep loading me with responsibility with ever increasing stress.  

I've had it.

I'm ready to do something crazy and different....I need to do something before it's really too late and I get too old to chase dreams.

I think I know what I want but my mind is clouded by stress and I can't see it all clearly yet. The parents are getting older and they've asked me for help. Perhaps I can start all over and temporarily move back in with them to save on rent while I have a chance to seek out BP mentors in the Florida market that would take me under their wing and expose me to the business. I've got a resume ready and I'm looking for accounts payable positions in the Orlando, Florida area that would help pay my bills while I learn about REI. I think the prospects of positioning myself down the road for REI in the Florida markets might be better or at least easier to initiate than for a beginner in the New York markets.

@Account Closed @Paula Pant and anybody else who may have creative ideas on how my life can possibly go this year.  

I thank you all.
