Plan B

Been there and now in permie hell. All I can say is while you have the candy coming in, for god's sake get a plan B sorted out. I am not talking about retraining into the latest hot language, that will be just as boring as your current one.
I mean something completely different, skills, a business opportunity, preferably anything that is earning while you are sleeping.
For 10 years contracting I thought I was running my own business (not), earning big money (only compared to mates) and forging a good career (lol). Market dropped and so did I with a bump, I am trying a different game plan but hate being at the mercy of a company, biding my time till someone dies and I may get their job (which I dont want)
Trust me, Plan B is what you should be devoting all your spare time and when the time is right money to.
Good Luck all.

Well I'm gonna raise a fuss
And I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just tryin' to earn a dollar

Well, I went to my boss
Who governs me
He said, "No, dice, bud
You gotta work late"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do

There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
