@Starsa please add this to the goals and notes section. Update when you have thought through minimums and total comp stuff.

Had a thought in terms of comp.

If I am being completely honest with myself; I am in this for $$. I walked away from doing something I loved that didn't make much money to live freely and comfortably.

Yes, I want to do something for good or the good of the planet and get excited about recalibrating my skills(etc.), but when I quit singing my goal was to make all the $$. Additionally, I want to be the non-traditional breadwinner so my partner can be the artist (He is a ceramics artist), and not worry about how much income he is bringing in.

I found something I am good at, and it's absolutely fun, but I don't have to love it as much as I did performing.

Just a random thought I am leaving here until I retarget my comp goals.

Good context, thanks. I made a similar decision when I was searching for my first ds role. Max comp and then leverage the title to move into a better fit position next. Ideally, we can find you the cash you need at a place with interesting work. FYI, max comp == facebook (or hedge funds, but I don't think you have interest there), but there may be work-life balance issues.

If salary is number 1, what is number 2? Is a 40 hour week important to you?
