What career move would you make? FAANG Contract or steady work

[mohelena02]

The running joke is that the dream is to be an ex-FAANG worker so that for the rest of your life, you can brag to everyone about how you used to work at FAANG and all the status and privileges that come with that. Lol

The freedom to work wherever you want is significant. If you move and don't like it, it would be easy to move back whenever you want.

Changing jobs is not an easy choice. It's hard to tell if you will move into a better or worse situation. 

Now all these problems will be solved if you make a million dollars being a social influencer. You never know.

I am 95% leaning towards not taking the contract, but the main reason for taking it would be to have it on my resume to make my life 'easier' for the future.

My current job is fully remote, and that freedom is of significant importance to me, it also has been difficult to find other 100% remote opportunities. Most fully remote jobs do require you to come into the office once a month, which is NOT fully remote but that is how it's advertised.

My life would be much easier if I became a social influencer, that is for sure! haha currently I have a struggling youtube channel.
