Pretty much the only answer?

I saved my money, made it to MD and now work about 50 hours a week while preparing for my exit. I could have topped out at Director and been happy. I find that the balance between income and soul sucking work is about right at the SM/Director level.

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship. I get 3-4 requests a week from mutual contacts asking if I can connect with a former colleague (always broad). Typically the ask is a 30-45 min call.
