FAANG Exit to MBB?
3.5 YOE, Non-technical, 150k TC
Been at Alphabet my entire career post-undergrad. Managed to move from Google to a well-respected Bet where I’m very happy. Undergrad was a pretty general liberal arts degree and haven’t pursued grad school yet.
What would it look like (from a TC + long term career standpoint) to switch over to MBB for a year or two then go back to FAANG?

Good luck to you
I’d for sure use it! Why wouldn’t you? The whole value prop of trading is having a competitive advantage. If you can make your family fabulously wealthy you’d be a fool not to. Also just because you have a nifty data set doesn’t mean much, can this data set trade for you?

Just size your bet so that any gain or loss doesn’t have the ability to change your life. Diversify. Diversify across asset classes, not just across crypto assets.
How did you get into the crypto space? I’m trying to break in but it’s been very difficult.
I got in through networking. It is hard to break in right now.
Your strategy will depend on what your career is. And don’t work for a stupid company - there are a lot.
