I'm probably less than 5 years to FIRE - is it worth it to look for a higher paying job now? Posted: 01 Feb 2021 06:07 AM PST Mid 30s, IT professional. Married 2 very young kids. Target FIRE age early 40s @ 3% SWR. I've been at my current company for over 6 years, so I feel like I'm overdue to change jobs to get that coveted big salary bump (say, +20% salary for changing jobs). It's always felt like the "right" thing to do at my age (prime of career?) to maximize earning power. That said, my current job is pretty chill, good work life balance and benefits - but I know I'll never get a +20% salary bump through raises/promotions at my current company. I'm not saying I wouldn't still look for the work/life balance perks in a new job, but it's always a gamble for it to pan out the way they tell you it will in the interviews. And while it feels foolish to not pursue a +20% salary bump, when I put the numbers into my FIRE calculator, it doesn't even shave a year off my time to FIRE. What are opinions on it being worth it and risk assessment here? [link] [comments] |
