Time for a Change?

So, us unemployed, whether we like it or not, find ourselves with a little more time on our hands than we would prefer. In speaking with other job seekers I'm seeing many people who are using this opportunity to consider a career change. In some ways it would be a "green field" opportunity, using corporate parlance. It's easy to get excited about it however practicality and financial obligations and commitments can certainly be obstacles. Have you considered a change?
