How should I think about the opportunity cost of leaving? Working where I work as been the biggest contributor to my net worth. I don’t come from means. Nobody has ever seen money like this in my family so I feel I would be naive or stupid to give it up. Thoughts ?

Well, what do you think your ability would be to go back to a comparable company after a few years of working at a smaller one?
If I were to think in a measured manner it would be very hard but not impossible. Uncertainty would be around the duration it would take to get in. Could be months to years given how these things work and it’s circumstantial nature.
