Don't Quit Your Day Job

Twitter: @dqydj_net

Don't Quit Your Day Job was started in 2009 for a number of reasons - but mainly to have a soapbox to stand on when trying to stop bad advice and silly ideas. We're currently a team of three, writing on Personal Finance, Economics, Politics, Investing, and the Offbeat - DQYDJ is sure to feature something you feel strongly about.  The site is always relevant, frequently contemptuous, occasionally facetious, rarely erroneous and never monotonous.  We welcome all comers, especially those who disagree with the wisdom dished out by the staff.


Haven't read our stuff yet?  You're in for a treat because our archives are 300+ articles deep and it's all new to you!
