If you were me.....?

Question

If you were me, what would you do? After college, I have been working in the I.T. industry for three years and am making a decent salary. I've worked very hard to get up to this level I'm at now. My father has been doing business for approximately five years; the business is growing and is very profitable. Although he started the business late, it is still successful. He will retire soon and going to give his business to me. I know nothing about his business, but I have started learning it part-time. Hopefully, by the time he retires, I have adequate knowledge to run it. I will then quit I.T. and continue the business. I know I have already made up my decision. Please don't ask me why I'm asking it - if you were me, would you give a second thought of this decision?

Follow wherever your heart leads you because you don't need anyone else to validate your decisions. Have confidence in your ability to succeed no matter what you choose to do. Life is always risky business so if you fall down just pick yourself up and move on, but keep your expectations high - and keep looking up. Good luck!
