I'm not sure about it, for me in my life the main stuff is steady income, and when i'm not reciving enough money, im always in bad mood, so better not to try different jobs with unexpecting result.

Not everyone has a steady income, you are lucky you have it. I'm constantly trying different jobs because I can't find a steady one and I'm sure there are many people like me. But you have a point, if your income is good and steady it's better not to jump to something unknown.

I think the happy place in between is getting your wages in BTC or at least a portion.  Really, if you look at Bitcoin for what it is, a currency, the question the OP poses is something like saying to an America, "Would you quit your full time job to make dollars?". 
I think you did not get the point of the question, the OP means that would you quit your job to go full time with working in the bitcoin world? That is the argument here and of course most of the members are not promoting to quit their job because they can do both effectively.

Exactly and if you are earning only from signature campaign then I don't think you need to quit your job as that can be done even in 1 hour, and the fact is the earning from campaign is not enough for living.

Are you inspired by those bitcoin millionaires? Are you thinking of filing a resignation letter on your day job (if you have any) and focus on bitcoin instead?

Me? I do have a day job and I consider bitcoin as my side job. I don't want to lose that another source of income just because bitcoin is awesome.

I don't have any day job but even if i had i wouldn't leave it for going full time bitcoin because i don't have any special skills that i can use for earning some goods bitcoins nor i have a good enough capital to earn enough bitcoins a week for myself.

If you spend time here then you will find many ways to earn bitcoins, and when it comes to skills it can always be learned but even though its good to keep bitcoin as an extra income.

Yes here on bitcointalk we can find many opportunities to earn bitcoins or even some other altcoins as well and also can earn money by providing different services like web designing or article writing.But still i don't think they can provide full time income or depending on full time income on this will not be a good idea.This should only be considered as extra income.

Trading can give you full time and regular income if you have good capital to invest at initial stage, and if you trade altcoins then your profits will be even higher.

True. That is the advantage of people who have big capital because even if there is only one or two decimal increase of the altcoins they bought, they can still have huge amount of profit when they sell it due to the number of altcoins they have compared to just small amount of capital where even if you have 10% - 100% increase you won't feel the profit because of the low volume.

If you have high capital then even small fluctuations will give you higher profits and you will feel it in your wallet, but if you invest low then profits will be lower.

While there are many investments and methods that yield both dollars and BTC, the most common way that any person is going to make any type of currency is to work, sell a service or product, or perform an action and get paid for it in whatever currency.

We are discussing whether we can afford to get full time in bitcoin or not putting our day job and fiat currency behind, and if you are comfortable in earning with fiat then no need to get full time in bitcoins.

So is 0.4 per month is enough for you to take of your living, as 0.4 is not that high amount that we can afford to quit the job but it will also depend on where you are living and what is salary you are getting in fiat.

No. No, I will not give up their jobs in order to earn that Bitcoin. At least at this point in time.
Yes, I believe in Bitcoin. But I have a good income in the national currency. Bitcoin For me, a hobby.

Yup that's right bitcoin is good as an hobby and a way to earn some extra money, but we cannot simply rely on it for living, as we never know what bitcoin will offer us in future.

It's an interesting possibility, if this can give you the opportunity to work in the internet business field, using Bitcoin at the same time. But I don't know if this could really work as a main job.

Right, you need to think a million times before deciding on whether or not you are going to quit your day job for bitcoin ventures. Of course, there are other successful individuals in bitcoin industry but it doesn't follow that you are guaranteed of that success also - you need to work for it and earned it. There is no easy way whether in regular job or business.

In third class countries 0.4 is a much good salary for fulfilling their expenditures, in those countries I have saw that most of the educated people work for only $100  per month (that is something 0.16, according to current price) and they try to live with that for the whole month.

Hire me for your campaign management

The bitcoin related economy is too small. It might be just less than $100 billion. So it cannot support to many people.
