He has income from his blog, he's switching over the course of a year, and he has some money as a cushion. I think that he follows Ramit's idea of excuting a dream.

Honestly I've really really enjoyed it, and I do consider it my #1 favorite personal finance blog (no exaggeration). It really helps that it's updated everyday, and that he actually writes his articles. He doesn't just copy and paste verbiage from links to articles on other sites. It's a grade A quality blog, that I would recommend to anyone. Check it out. www.getrichslowly.org I’ve read J.D.’s site for a little over a year now.

Forget that I update bi-monthly and won't make a penny. I think that if I ever get fired, I’m going to say that I just quit in order to focus on my blogging.

On his blog, he mentions that the blog is currently bringing in $5000 per month. It's not difficult to get rich slowly on a gross income of $60K/year, so long as he decides to live below his means. He's even discussed his plan for doing so. Kudos to J.D. and best of luck with the decision. (in response to Just Wondering):
