Cheers, that's good perspective. Thanks for replying.

Hi Michael, long time fan, couple of questions:

1) I'm a tech lead at a FANG company and frankly I'm losing interest in coding. I'm not too old for an MBA (about 30 now). Would you suggest getting an MBA and doing something different like finance or fighting it out and trying to move up the dev management chain? I only ask because in some of your writing and some of your twitter comments you've alluded to wondering if you'd have been better off just completely becoming a suit (pardon me if I interpreted your comments wrong).

2) What are your thoughts on product management jobs? I see a lot of engineers trying to angle their way to becoming PM's but I don't really know what value they ad. Do you see it as a stable long term career or just the byproduct of today's hyped up market.
