I have ridden these fads for the last 25 years (well actually longer - I had a different career first!) and made a fuck load of money out of it. But I am tired of it now. I really don't care any more. I am fed up of solving the same problems again and again. It's more than just earning; there's intellectual dishonesty in this and it's tiring and demotivating.

Sounds like you need to move up maslow's hierarchy of needs and focus more on self actualization (or whatever if upwards for you) ... because your posts are full of negativity and you sound miserable.

  Oh I'm bloody fantastically happy. I am merely cynical about the state of the industry as it stands. I'm literally 18 months from packing up this shit and doing what I really want to do which involves nothing whatsoever to do with computers.

    Good for you and congratulations! I hope to do the same some day, but I need at very least 10 more years (no, this is not an advice for FIRE enthusiasts to chip in with tips or help, thank you).
