Based on fear mongering. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, in any economy. One just has to weigh all the consequences.
Absolutely.
My partner and I are moving to Colorado at the end of this year. She misses it, and I want a change in my life, plus living in California is too expensive and heavily populated...she has her family out there, so we are fortunate enough to already have room and board set up when we get out there, jobless. Actually not really...we could work at her bar while we find some thing permanent. I have faith that I will be employed full time within a year. So will my partner.
I resigned several times without having another job lined up. It's always worked out fine for me. I like to take time off in between jobs...weeks or months.
Biggest issue is to have health insurance worked out. And have money set aside for day to day expenses while out of work. Plus have a plan for your next job after having done research on pay, location, companies, etc prior to resigning the first job.

You have to have one hell of a nest egg to be able to do that. Question, at your next job interview how do you explain the gap in employment?
I quit my last job with only $12k built up and havent even begun to burn through it. On that note, I dont have a mortgage, my car is paid for and have no credit card debt. I think reducing your monthly bills gives you a certain amount of leeway when it comes to quitting a job.

Not having that kind of monthly overhead is KEY, in addition to a reasonable nest egg, to being able to just walk off the job without another lined up.
