You have the "tried and true" (aka "conventional") route. No surprises...but you can fill your belly at will and end the endless "hunting" for something better.
You have the "risky" route -- its all you ever wanted, but it blow up in your face at any time and you could be left broke. However, if the "risky" route paid off, you'd be happier beyond your wildest dreams. Not so the conventional route.
It's a one time shot and you'll have to die with your decision.
What's the Getbigger play here?
