If you are able to get a job at a FAANG, you should also be able to take a look at your expenditures and determine what you actually need in life. Maybe getting a smaller living place will be the stumbling block for most, but think of the freedom you gain. If you find yourself fantasizing about working in Costco during your daily life, chances are the things you spend on aren't that effective at bringing you satisfaction anyway. Yet unlike the vast majority of people you actually have the means to escape and build the life you want i.e. a massively well remunerated job with remote working options. So why not do it?
