Different skillsets involved. You will eventually have to give up programming and focus on developer sales/marketing/recruiting skills.

Very rare to see businesses where you're sole developer and salesperson unless you are the main SME on a niche field/technology you probably developed.

Also A LOT of FAANG is immigrants who can't start a business in the US or children of immigrants whose parents put strong pressure on them having an upper middle class job.
