我在大型科技公司工作了十年，是一名经验丰富的软件工程师。我现在的人生阶段，觉得朝九晚五的日常工作让我非常厌倦，尤其是那些要求你在下班时间之外工作的、繁重且优先级随时变动的任务。我年轻的时候，还没有成家，可以应付这样的工作。但现在我意识到，最近我越来越难以兼顾一切，尤其是抚养家庭。我想每天花时间和孩子们在一起，不想再每周工作 40 多个小时了。我觉得一个可持续的工作节奏是每天工作 3-4 小时，并在此过程中构建一些东西。我热爱创造，这总是让我充满热情，但我对工作中需要影响跨部门人员的方面并不那么兴奋/有挑战性，尤其是在大型科技公司担任高级工程师时。总之，这一切都是为了说明我长期以来一直在思考的事情：辞去我在大型科技公司的工作，自己创业，建立一个能产生足够收入来维持生计和抚养家庭的事业。我的财务状况目前有一些积蓄，但还不足以完全实现 FIRE（财务独立，提前退休），所以我需要一些收入来支付房贷、孩子和生活开销。我该从哪里开始？我应该探索哪些想法？如果有人经历过类似的情况，你们的体验是怎样的？

Experienced Software Engineer working in Big Tech since the past decade. I'm at a point in my life where I'm feeling pretty done with a daily 9-5 job especially because of the overwhelming demands and random priority changes that expect you work beyond scheduled hours.<p>I could do this in my 20s and before I had a family but I've realized that it has become increasingly hard for me lately to manage everything especially raising a family. I'd like to spend time daily with my kids and don't want to pull 40+ hour work weeks anymore.<p>I feel like a sustainable pace would be working 3-4 hours a day and building something. I love building things so that always excites me but I'm not so excited/challenged by the people aspect of a job where you are required to be influential across orgs especially in as a Senior engineer in BigTech.<p>Anyway, all of this is just context for what I've been thinking since long: to quit my BigTech job and build something of my own on the side that generates just enough income for me to sustain and help raise my family. I'm at a stage financially where I have some cushion but not enough to be fully FIRE'd so I will need some income to sustain mortgage + kids + lifestyle.<p>Where do I start? What ideas do I explore? If any of you did it, what was your experience like?
