Ask HN: Friends, what is your Plan B?

2•wombat-man•6h ago
I'm solidly in the midpoint of my career, I'm seeing the level uncertainty rising. More and more of my day is watching a robot do my job. My company seems to be moving away from PIPs to straight up firings. The bottom hasn't dropped out quite yet, but I'm not liking the trends.

I know I daydream a fair bit about what my alternate career path might be. I know I'd be making less but but maybe that's fine if I don't burn my savings. What's kind of your idea for your post tech industry life?

save and invest most of my paychecks; and when robots replace most of our IT jobs, move to some of the lowest cost per acre for land counties, to raise chickens and goats.

The trick to avoid needing a plan B is to have no plan A.
