if you are sick to the back teeth of your job but have not left it [humming and hawing] you probably wont go unless you sense a safe jump. thats flawed , you need to jump when it seems very risky -just something ive learned over time.

The problem is that, by its nature, something that is very risky stands a very good chance of jumping out of the frying pan and tumbling into the fire.
Moreover, the more who leap at the same chance in the market, the greater the risk likely becomes, because the market responds to so many people suddenly being willing to take high risks for low rewards. The reason there was a prospect of high reward initially, was because no sensible person would take those chances - once everybody will take those chances, there is no reason to provide reward.
I remember making a rickety barge with friends when I was a child out of planks and oil drums. In a split second, seeing it drift slightly away from the lakeside, and eager to secure our places, we all leapt at once - the barge collapsed back into pieces and we all ended up far wetter than almost any other conceivable tactic.
