IDK how to respond to that. It's an industry that pays better. In my career as a software dev, my options have fallen into three categories: - Projects interesting and challenging enough to devote time to, but subpar pay. - Good pay but absolutely boring, career ending, mind numbing work. - Go to Fintech, work hard, get to work on interesting things, get paid well. At least as far as finance in software is concerned, the smart people go into it because it's one of the few fields where there's a better chance that there are interesting problems to be solved. Finance is the only industry I've worked in that paid more than lip service to scaling and high availability. Admittedly, at least part of this is because of my location in the USA, and C# as my language of choice.
