I don't know how old you are but you are likely to hit a compensation ceiling as an individual contributor at some point.
Or you manage to move into those staff/post-staff positions but those are very few, hyper competitive and during rounds a layoffs you have a huge target on your back.

I'm no where near making a capped IC amount but if someone were in this position you really only need ~5-8 years of working to pretty much set yourself up for life financially if you keep your living expenses reasonable.
- itake 2y agoI’m 35. I survived 80% layoffs because I’m one of the lowest paid people in my grade and office. Im still earning way less than what I see reported on Blind and what my coworkers make.
