2 great replies above. I'd say slow down and research first. Develop a possible budget. Several channels give their monthly expenses, compare that with your future income.
Try spending 4-6 hours during the day and then sleeping overnight in a 5'x10' space taped out on the floor of your place and remember you likely cannot stand up.
Way too many things to consider and very little info about you/your situation to say much else.
