I wish you the best! It will be a journey with ups and downs but I am definitely convinced that it will be a +EV decision for most aspects of your life...
PS even if steem/steemit will not be a great success as the most of us believe it will, if you stay a professional contributor to the project it will pay you some day... I have the experience from the bitshares project... The developers that didn't quit are mostly steem whales right now! Even the developers that have quit developing on bitshares are doing very well on other crypto projects right now... Their experience on bitshares gave them the knowledge and skills that are needed in the crypto world to get respected! And I think the most valuable thing you will surely get is some very nice connections with very talented and smart people that will indirectly create a path that will drive you (and them) to success..... happiness and freedom!
The only advice I can give you from now on is ....
