Same age, same concerns.

I was 8 when I started on a PcJr with BASIC.

I'm now in my 40s writing everything from Angular to C# APIs to database stored procedures.

Honestly, I've had enough and already suffered through one massive burnout that almost cost me my career.

I've been looking at what else I can do ... but I have no idea. And that scares me.

I can't see myself doing this in my 60s! And I'm not really the management type.
