This is easy: Your salary and skills can use a bump. Take the risk, and save some of your raise in an emergency fund.

Why coast when you can push? Yes, its a risk, but a lot of the time risk pays off. And, worst case scenario? You come out with more knowledge of yourself and your skillset, and a lot of businesses look at that fairly favorably.<p>Unless you&#x27;re in Silicon Valley, age shouldn&#x27;t be a factor. The only thing holding you back is yourself.

Should mention I have a mortgage ($200K) and a family (2 beautiful kids) to support. I am also 35 so feel it may be too late to take the risk like this?
