      Hang on with your existing job or if you have lost your job due to recession, try to get a new one. Read my Hub on how to find a job during recession. Publish 100 Hubs in 30 days and earn some cash.

         But will publishing 100 hubs be able to replace a day job and you have not answered my second question. I will take a look at your hub.

            Internet itself is a bundle of knowledge. I had NO KNOWLEDGE of HTML or website designing till a couple of years back. I learnt everything on my own using DIY Trial and Error. Now I have 2 websites, 25 blogs and over 350 Hubs that make me around $30-50 per day. Did this answer your question?

            I joined a couple of months ago and felt the same way. But after 2 months and 34 hubs I see more money coming in. I am not ready to quit my day job yet. But from a few cents a week it has become a few dollars a week.
            
            Keep writing about topics that interest you and also keep in mind the reader. Make sure they are interested by it too.
            
            Never quit keep writing and in another 2 years you'll be advising newbies on the forum about making money on HubPages.

   These aren't in your survey, but I'd say keep your job and try to have a second income as well.
   
   Some skills don't particularly need updating, but learning new ones (however you can learn them) is never a bad idea.
