How can I quit my full time job and know PC will support my family?

Tell me how you did it and how your PC business works for you.
 
I would love some information on this topic as well. Plus, I live in a very small town and am unsure that the demand will be big enough for me to not be working at least a part time job in addition to selling PC. But, I would love to be a stay at home mom to my daughter when she arrives in April.
 
The way I see it is you should work 1 year in PC before quitting any other job. That way you have a pretty good grasp on how well you are able to drum up business and what you bring in every month.

I also live in a small town, and I find myself traveling up to an hour for shows (But I also travel 60 miles for my day job so it's not that bad for me - I'm used to it). Try to branch out of your comfort zone and be willing to travel some.
I'll do shows that are on my way home from work, so it's sort of just a detour on my regular commute.
 
If you start your business with a srtong/full schedule with good habits, and work your business every day this should not be an issue.

At least that is what I have seen from most of the people I know that truly use PC to supliment their income. It's not even a choice.
