Reaching towards an interesting but less secure option is something we quite often don't do. It's much easier to stay in the current situation, maybe complain a bit, but then conform. And the more we start using money (take loans and so on) the more we have to lose - and the more we get stuck to our current positions. That's why I think learning to use money (saving, investing...) is so important: it gives us the security that helps us overcome the fear we have for teh unknown angel. “Known devil is better than unknown angel”

That is exactly what I think (and wanted to communicate...). Well, I like your blog for this one (more) reason...you put down things in much better and elaborate way....I definitely need to learn that... Around 6-7 years ago, I was working in a small company. I didn't understand quite well then but I was learning and enjoyning everything that I was doing like never before. Being short of staff, we had to do literally everything in a software development life cycle. Well, the salary was not great, but my experience there still remains the best period of my career. Then I switched th job only for the reason that I was getting opportunity to work in a well-known company. I could not stay there for more than 2 years and again switched to another well-know company. Now I have been with this "well-known" company for about 4 years, but I can say that is only for money. The main reason not to find change now is I am afraid of going through the same experience in next new company in probably 6 months. It is a case of "Known devil is better than unknown angel"... Bang on target, Jarkko…
