The reality is to reach $300k salary you need to invest a lot as well, especially in banking. Play golf with your boss, cycling on the weekend with the other managing directors and peers. Wine/whiskies and dinners with your team mates etc. you don’t necessarily have to suck up your boss, but you have to build network within the company, and the industry.
Spends $36k a year and saves $264k to invest in bonds? Please la… This kind of mentality is so naive, that’s why you don’t make $300k pa. You don’t even bother to invest in yourself.

This makes quite a fair bit of sense. Someone living the caipng 3k lifestyle would likely not even get into upper echelons of management because of “being unable to fit in”
Also, many people who are able to get hungry to make more money genuine love/are driven to manage their jobs; a lot of it encompassing managing your team, reporting upwards and handling clients

Go for it. Pay is at least 10-20% more and hours still very manageable.

Not sure if there is a meaningful difference in salary range as well, especially given that these types of risk management roles seem to be much more technical / quantitative (and hence likely harder to land as well). Any general insights on risk management as a career path is much appreciated!

After 5 years at the job, A has no savings. B has $1.43M.
Now, recession hits. Both lose job.
A has no choice. He has to go find a job even if it pays less than 300k because he has expenses to pay.
B can literally just live off the interest of 4% per year which is 57k a year or 4.7K a month if he wants to while taking his own sweet time to find a job that pays him 300k or more. He will in fact even has excess because his expenses is same as when he earning 3k a month.
Now, I used bonds as example. Imagine stock market.
Compounding interest is the key. Literally earning interest on interest.
