How much money should I have to quit?

Figure out your budget

Most financial advisors will tell you to have at least three months' emergency savings stowed away, but if you don't know how much your necessities are costing you per month — you may not know how much you'll need to get by.

How long should I wait before quitting?

In an ideal world, you should stay at each job for a minimum of two years. However, if you quickly come to realize you made the wrong choice when accepting a position, don't feel obligated to stay at the company until your two-year anniversary.
