Ditching a client who generates 80% of revenue - and enough to provide for 2 people - is akin to quitting a good job with no job to go to.

If you have a client like that who is hindering to growth, then a dominating strategy would be to spin-off rather than ditch. You can afford to put 1 or 2 people on that work while you build from what's already been done.
