Do what makes you happy but at some point you are going to need to make sacrifices in order to do well, be it hard work, more studying, etc.... Frankly, I would not quit a job to gamble full time, especially a job I was not happy with. I would keep hitting on new opportunities until I found something I liked. At that point, if you wanted to do something else, fine. Always better to make a move of any kind from a positive position.

I was going to say that- if you're going to get in to accounting, make sure u become a CPA. . .
