Real estate makes the transition into running a business so easy and obvious if it was not something you had previous knowledge of.That said, I think maybe only 10% of the books I read are about real estate and most of the others are about being a good person, business, and mindset.

Find something that you can enjoy and still make money.As @Frank Wong mentioned your expenses will continue to rise and while $4,500 a month seems like a lot there are always unexpected things that happen in life that will be more than $4,500.A few years ago I was burnt out as well with my corporate job and went through a career transition.
