About me:
> Learnt to code 10 years ago to build stuff for the sheer joy of it and hopefully make some projects into some fun software business
> Got seduced by high SWE salaries and trapped in that life
> Lost my soul and passion over the years with multiple burnouts
> Got disillusioned with startup culture / working at any software company for multiple years now ]
> Still seduced by the comfy life, good money, yet I'm burnt out / zoned the f out
> Want to quit and perhaps be a farmer / garbage man / construction worker instead, little to no mental stress
> Want to start passion projects which I fantasise will make money but I'm curious if they'll even make any money at all
About you: what do you do nowadays after quitting being a SWE? How hard was it to transition? How was your financial security like before / during the transition? Any advice for someone who is fed up with that industry?
