Have you ever considered sales...?

I often time read posts from people saying something along the lines, “what is the easiest job that I can make 300k a year.” People often answer Corp Dev or something along those lines. If IB/PE isn’t for you, might be something to think about.

For those who wants a better work/life balance, but still high pay - have you ever considered sales. People regularly make 350-500+ in sales without crazy hours and pretty early into their careers. Close friend of mine pops is a MD in sales and regularly rakes in 700
