In fact yes. Many in my industry quit their full-time to be on their own. Either into freelance, consultancy or tech startup. This is what I intend to do after my current job. But it is relevant to the topic, so I will not elaborate.

P/S, those from GLC, MNC will have difficulty pursuing this path, due to the culture over there.

If you followed the first post, the bonus was counted.
