I failed a few FAANG interviews.

E5s at Facebook make around 200k a year in pure stock. Assuming it grows in value, do that for a decade and your at 2.5 million or so.

Even after the taxes, that's enough to retire overseas.

Now I'm old. It didn't happen so I'm content to write code for a middle class wage



So I guess you didn’t try very hard to get rich?


Eh.

I guess not a tbh. I really thought a FAANG job would have just fallen in my lap by now.
