I have never been a lifer. I worked as a contractor for a decade so constant change and learning. The last couple years I ran a solo operation which covered my living costs but ultimately was really brutal during the last year. I secured a perm job for the first time in a decade and used it as a way to move back to the UK from a cheaper country. I also have a nice setup similar to yours, pays well, good people on the team, mostly wfh but can go to a nice office in London. Plan is to ride it out and get finances back to normal and use it as a way to secure a mortgage and house. Now I realise most the 'lifers' are probably just middle aged men paying off their mortgages.
