- scarface_74 3y agoI spent the first 13 years of my adult life drinking too much, dating the wrong women, hanging out with friends and getting married (to a former stripper) and divorced once (since remarried), I had a house built in the burbs of Atlanta at 28, and was a part time fitness instructor, bought too much investment property before 2008 and by the end of those 13 years, I was only making $90K I would not give up those years for anything - especially not an adTech company. I stumbled into my first BigTech job at 46 and did this in 2022. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36306966 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36306966 I have no regrets.
