About 15 years ago I met a 65 year old (a founder of Adobe) who was considering "taking another run at the fence."

The term "taking another run at the fence" refers to flocks of turkeys, who are often crushed against short fences when the flock panics. They are stupid birds and don't know that they are able to fly above the fence.

For me, the considerations are:

- Time away from family

- Likelihood that the compensation will ultimately be crap

I can compensate for the long hours by taking care of myself, and by working smart.
