NYC Bankers from developing countries. Do you ever think of making it to VP3 and then cashing out and going back home?

May he I am just so mentally burnt out these days but this thought comes into my mind too often. For a life in  the balkans where my family is, I have enough savings to last me 10 years as long as I stay in family home. I know not a lot of internationals here but have. Any of you had this thought process?
