This is the way. Software devs can make so much money and have so much more control over their lives, instead of grinding FAANG.

It doesn't always work out like that. A lot of people out there who take a run at doing their own thing and can't make it profitable.

It's fun to reduce a job to "the grind" but sometimes dependable income and benefits are better than freedom and risk
