After browsing this forum for a few years, and over a decade in the industry watching young people chase money, I want to throw this out there for devs who are new to the industry:

There is more to life than money, like a lot more. Don't spend your entire life chasing more money. Read books in a wide variety of subjects. Pursue art. Travel. Help people. Take your focus off of money and point it toward the wider world and the people in it, you'll live a much more satisfying life.

That is all.
