What you say may sound good in theory. But how will you implement it? Everyone who is worth billions has their worth in shares. so if it goes beyond a billion, you tax it away. What if it falls, will you give it back? so you will keep redis

Thank you for asking this. You are not doing anything wrong. There is more to life than being great at some niche tech skill. In many things, being a jack of all trades will help. It's perfectly okay to just treat a job as what it is,

What can you do that will give someone living 500 years from now a reason to care about your existence? If there is a reason they will find a way. If there is none even a website that may still survive will hardly have any visitors.
