Blowing up your life with your own hands may leave you unprepared or resorceless to react to your life being blown up by external factors. If that doesn't ever happen, congratulations, you're in a lucky minority.

This is a wrong advice that will always sound like a profound wisdom if it works for you, or emerge as a protective rationalisation if it doesn't quite.

Don't do it without a parachute of course, but as long as you have a monetary cushion, what do you have to lose? Move to a country with good healthcare, don't own a car, what hardship could possibly happen otherwise? Outside of extreme tail risk situations that could happen to anyone at anytime, I don't buy it.
