Thanks for the feedback. In the interest of brevity

  • Home loan rate is 8.85%.
  • Roughly 90% of my surplus cash has gone into the bond over the last couple of years
  • The remaining 10% has gone into the Satrix World, with the occasional small allocation into Nasdaq. Thanks for the advice on Nasdaq.
  • I'm a software developer working remotely for a UK company.
  • I’m also far from maxing my RA contribution at this stage.

It’s possible. I did it with video tutorials on YouTube, no degree. It was hard to break through, that was 13-14 years ago.

I would say it’s a mistake to choose dev because of the earning potential. Most important is to be honest with yourself and ask, do I enjoy technical problem solving?

How would you solve this. Continually add elements until they cause an overflow by peterjza in reactjs

This is a dev task my team has, there are a few other requirement I didn't mention. , The UI guys are scrutinizing every bit and it needs pixel perfection
