When I gave notice to my steadiest client that I would be leaving them (too long doing legacy support in A Language That Will Not Be Named). I've worked for them for years, they are the main source of income for our house, and I don't have anything else solid lined up or any good network of other clients.

Of course not.

As far as the outcome, ask me again in six months. :)

But in my case, it is time to make a change, whatever the price I may pay in the short term. I don't think I'll regret the choice even if I regret some of the consequences.
