When is it too late to jump from ER to Pod?
I’ve had 2 late stage interviews at Pod shops and going on 29. Have 2 YOE at small SM and 2 at ER shop.

Depends on your risk tolerance and how you feel about potentially starting at a junior level
I've seen cases where they moved around 40. At your age, you're totally fine.
dude you're fine
Chill and get laid bro you’re good
You’ll be absolutely fine. PMs constantly looking for people

Former MD at my old MM firm left for a big 4 pod shop on allegedly a 7 figure deal.
Have a friend joined a new launch pod at C/M in his mid 30s with his senior analyst retiring within 5yrs. Was single and a lowkey guy. So depends on your tolerance
Really appreciate the responses here. For me it really comes down to - can I make the jump and have enough time to be at risk table before 10 years pass - it goes really fast… esp. when you have guys coming into the model right out of college
