I fell out of love with tech, and found more leverage in finance. I still write code (Python) for myself for fun, but would rather live in Excel versus VS Code and k8s 50 hrs a week (I squeeze in commits on my open source projects when the family has gone to bed).

I’m semi retired in my late 30s, so it’s gone well. I am so extraordinarily thankful for the experiences and opportunities I’ve had, but recognize when it’s time to close a life chapter.

If you’re willing to offer advice, when did you make the switch and how? That’s quite a jump, and usually upon entering finance you end up with different tasks to fill up a 50+ hour week. PE/IB/etc ... only way you strike rich with easy schedules is a family office?
