On: Ask HN: What's been your best investment?

[morallybass]

The best investment I've made has been quitting a well-paid, big company job to work for an early Rails software startup.

I worked many more hours and was paid less money (the investment).

I had an amazing time, learned very valuable skills, and am in a much better place in my career because of it.

This will continue paying dividends in salary and enjoying my work for the rest of my life.
