$175k.

$275k to full tilt. It wouldn’t be worth it because I’d quit in a year.

Sounds about right. I went full tilt for about 9 months, because I felt they were paying me enough for it. Recognized signs of burnout, switched to a less stressful role.

$275k would set you for life? You'd be able to put up with a year, but not able to handle one more year and double your money?

Also $275k is only about $196k after federal taxes and FICA.

edit: fixed typo

I think they meant the burn out after a year of full tilt.

[–] Cryophilia 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

FICA? FICO is for credit scores.

Thanks for catching my typo. Fixed now.
