It's not a terminal thing. Work for a FANG for ~10 years then retire early. But over those 10 years, hustle hard and save what you can.

The pay is good, but if you have a family, saving enough in 10 years to retire is unlikely.

Not in the Bay Area, but a more affordable area of the US, it's possible. And if you plan on retiring early, there's no need to live in a housing market around lots of profitable tech businesses that make housing expensive.

As long as you pick the right 10 years.

The smart ones are playing the arbitrage game, by living in an RV and keeping costs down.
