Assuming you're on a version that still gets support, patches, and updates:

1.  If you've chosen Fedora, it's because you like living near the edge.
 Face  it, it's fun. Things break, things get fixed, hurdles are jumped.
It shows you are superior to people who use Windows or OS/X, even if
you're the only one who appreciates that. If you don't like the Fedora
life but like the Red Hat environment, switch to CentOS.  Stable,
strong, boring. :-)

2.  Skipping versions (e.g., using only odd-number versions) complicates
the upgrade processes.  It will *probably* work, but it's less certain
than upgrading with each bump.
