I never said I was "far ahead of others". The only thing I said is that I keep my skills current with the market, keep my resume up to date, and keep my network warm.
The objective measure that all that is true, is that I can reach out to my network and have multiple job offers in three weeks. It doesn't take a special snowflake to do that if you live in a major metropolitan area and you've done all of the above.
I'm definitely not still doing ASP.Net WebForms and VB.Net in 2019 trying to compete in a market where everyone wants the $cool_kids stack.
