I've never met a fellow software engineer who "centers divs" for 6 figures.
But then I work with engineers using FPGAs to trade in the markets with tick to trade times in double digit nanoseconds and processing streams of market data at ~10 million messages per second (80Gbps)
The truth is, a lot of P&L in trading these days is a technical feat of mathematics and engineering and not just one of fundamental analysis and punting on business plans

But did you ever meet fellow engineers who don't take everything literally?

If you were smart surely there would be easier ways for you to make that money ;)

If you were really smart surely you would be able to see that there are more long-term valuable things for you to do with your time than just make yourself more money...

The secret of meritocracy is it can be measured in billionaires

Forgot the /s ?
They just think they're smart BECAUSE they make a lot of money. Just because you can center divs for six figures a year at a F500 doesn't make you smart at everything.
