This is reasonable. After having a few days to think about it and check my runrate, I think I would be ok for a couple of months, but maybe I need to save a little more. Ha car insurance and health insurance definitely make it hard to leave my job. If I do leave, I am getting a part time job. I turned in my resignation, but my supervisor wanted to give me an offer that they are going to formulate and give me to keep me there.Hopefully you were able to calculate your runrate correctly. I used the app financeguru to find out that there were so many additional expenses (yearly e.g car insurance) that killed my runrate.
On the other hand just consider that it is really painful to slowly witness how your hard earned saving are dissapearing slowly month by month. I also had unexpected costs and had to blow 12k in one month to my project; that really hurts. Seeing how your savings go down are really demotivating and cause a lot of stress. Its good you have savings but I would still advise a part time job strongly. (it can also only be 25%)
