Dealing with so much income and constantly optimizing your investment strategy while leetcoding for that next TC bump is quite time consuming.
The struggle is real!

  So much income and yet sad. Struggle is good, being sad about it is not.

In life when people optimize for only one stuff, generally they will be sad. In BA mostly people optimize for prestige, money and wealth, may be that's the reason why people look sad over here. Happiest people are where people optimize equally Health, Family ,Career in the respective order. 24 hr should be 8 hr sleep/health, 8 hr family/friends, 8 hr career/building wealth. Some people optimize one over the other leading to imbalance in other long term and end in sadness.
