Also, you don’t need to change your career to make $200k in CA, BTW kev. You just need to be at the top of your game. Plenty of people in tech do that, in even down here. And don’t oversimplify being a RE “investor”. Not everyone does well in it, especially if you really don’t want to do it. You are looking at the problem backwards. You’re looking at compensation first of people, without understanding those who are making those compensation most likely enjoy what they are doing, and as a result, have been compensated for being good at what they are doing. Usually, people do what they want to do and get really good at it, and then the compensation comes. With all due respect, it still seems you care about the paycheck way too much and not so much about what you are doing, which may be the reason why you are hitting a glass ceiling.
