I had a friend in IT saying this this literally 20 years ago, although we didn't know the burnout word back then. I couldn't understand it at the time. But I learned, and am now retired. I occasionally get a twinge of something about not grabbing a huge FANG paycheck for a year or 5, but remind myself that money is a tool, not the goal.
