I've been at this job for 2 years and I'm really tired of dealing with it. I get asked to do impossible tasks with unclear expectations, including what the deadline is.

The WLB is fine. I am able to take 5 weeks of vacation per year and I never have to work outside 9-5. I do get pretty bored in the evenings because most of the things I like to do happen during daylight hours and/or take all day.

I thought going to another company might help, so I interviewed and got offers at Microsoft and Amazon. However, they didn't seem better and actually paid less than my current position.

I have enough money saved to support myself for 6-7 years. I'm considering just quitting without another job lined up, and I'll just die when the money runs out. Anything more I should consider with this plan?
