[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what is the best plan if you can’t slide into Big Law/Big Tech/Medicine? Work corporate and try for executive suite, but if by 40 not on clear trajectory angle for a government job? Just go for government job early if you don’t want to be an executive?[/quote] Yes or start your own biz. [/quote] Starting your own business is likely more work and risk than just shooting for executive level? Only 25% of small businesses make it past 10 years. Sure if you have a high earning spouse and it’s just a way to supplement and you don’t need benefits, but if it’s primary it’s hard to argue that is the best path unless you have some fast track market identified.
