It sounds like he didn't make that much money for long. Better to have a real career where you're making good money every year, year after year.

- fatfingerd 3y agoDoing a support role on a titanic is just as much potential beginnings of a good career that pays forever. I've known plenty of devs and bar passing lawyers that got nowhere in their career and plenty of support engineers that followed roughly the same user base across multiple bankrupt software companies.
- freeone3000 3y agoI don’t think those exist. It is much, much better to continually hop when the raises are 20% or more for doing so.
- CydeWeys 3y agoHuh? You don't think real careers making good money exist? I don't know what to tell you. But the main issue here is that someone without any special skills ended up making a shitload of money as a fluke by working at Binance for a short period of time. It's very unlikely they're going to be able to get another job even nearly that good, let alone more jobs 20% better, because they don't actually have real marketable skills and it was just a fluke.

- NSMutableSet 3y agoMy annual comp increases at FAANG are not 20%, but they have been consistent increases of roughly $45,000 a year, for little effort. I suppose it is a trap, but I am still content.
