It is what it is, but it will be what you make of it.
Get based in a big city that you like. BOS, JFK, ORD, DFW, DEN, SEA. ect.
Find a crashpad in that city with people in it that you like.
Apply for every job that is better than the one you have.
Do not acquire anything that does not fit in your car.
Think of your roller board as your "Condo".
If it is exciting, go see it.
If it is thrilling, do it.
If it moves, F * * k it.
As for the Regional forums, the whiners are the silver spoon entitlement crowd. They would never have the stones to follow you down your path less traveled.
Good Luck!
