I have a very senior position and build get into the exclusive club and the ivory tower. And make much more money.

I decided not to for a bunch of reasons - the most important ones being that I am at my limit of corporate bullshit, that I am an expert in what I do and wild be average in a new position.

There is also this sweet freedom edge when I can still criticize, but not be perceived as shitting my bed.

My son who is doing (elite) studies in finance cannot comprehend that. To him, an opportunity is something you ought to catch. I envy him his 20 years old :)
