I guess now u in late 40s/ early 50s? Honestly is alrdy good in tech industry that at this age u still got a good paying job …
A lot of my Chinese friends working in big tech (not FAANG but Chinese tech ) are forced to resign after 35-40 unless u are the top performer and moving on to more managerial positions
Got to admit our bodies deteriorate and not suitable to work at high intensity after a certain age
