I set a goal to earn 0.5M a year before 30. Currently I am at 220k, 5 YoE, West Coast FamousCo background, went to Brooklyn College for free(didn't have 💰 for top schools, didn't bother spending money to apply.), age 27. What to do? Options include 1. Citadel. Easier but short lifespan of SWE 2. Two-Sigma. Extraordinarily difficult. 3. Jane Street. I interviewed and was turned down. Problems felt like if you knew the trick you be able to solve it. 4. Google. Never tried. Was scarred after an internship interview. Same with FB. I ♥️ NYC Plz advise.
Start a company
Set higher goals
No way. Even if you could save $150k from salary and signing bonus over the next 3 years you still need >15% growth on 220k every year
Buy uber/slack/lyft/
Why you do you have google in the list? It’s way low in terms of TC compare to the others
Whore yourself out, metaphorically or literally is up to you.
Hopes and prayers during this difficult time.
Thx. If I make it big, I will make sure to pay it forward.
Get a 2nd job.
UPS actually pays their night/morning loading shifts quite well considering the type of job. Not to mention you do not need to go to gym 😉
Grow up.
