Was curious as i'm also an SDE I at amazon: https://imgur.com/gA3761z

Kinda cool to see the comparison. Also, feel ya on the several thousands in stock losses, just a bad year though. Thanks for the inspo! Also some unsolicited financial advice: max out your 401k

The funny part is that I do lol. What is your 401k matching? Mine is only 4% and they only match at 50%

The IRS max contribution limit for 401k in 2022 was $20,500, so you typically should want to max that out. I think you are maxing out only what amazon will match

I just contribute to get the free money Amazon puts forward. The money after that isn't nearly as valuable so I just take the liquidity by managing it myself
