The management path is where the money is. I would do that and plan to work on being an author in retirement. Maybe take an early retirement but get an enjoyable low stress part time job.
Yeah, and since management requires emotional intelligence, I will probably gain skills that can translate to writing characters.
And yes once nest egg is big enough, I will retire and write full-time. Do freelancing, if needed. And this is where programming wins. Easy to get freelancing jobs as a developer vs manager.
