Instead of getting good at 1 big tech job making 300k in 20-30 hours a week you get good at 2-3 and make 800k+ in 60 hours a week.
Though I think the actual best way to optimize labor-to-income is F500 Cloud SRE via B2B contract, but its hard to have to balls to pivot to that after spending so long perfecting SWE interview skills.
Wait so you literally work at multiple companies? How do you manage meetings and deadlines and things like that? Surely that creates conflicts between them.
Not sure how well this ever works in practice, but I just realized you could work remotely for drastically different time zones if your employers were spread across multiple countries.
What does this mean?
