I'd never work for a "FAANG" style corporation, but otherwise made a similar choice when my first kid was born, back in early 2019.

I'll surely lose out on some currency in the long run but I'm not so sure whatever value it's going to have in the coming fifties outweighs the time with my family I've gained. On a global scale a lot of things are going to shit and I'd rather my kids think of me as someone who didn't bail on them under such circumstances.
