I dunno i'm 35, own a home and have a kid and the longest I've ever worked anywhere is my current job at 2.5 years. I'm only sticking it out here to get a bit more vested and then I'm taking my shares and going on to the next thing as always. Especially because each time I change jobs I end up with a close to a 20% raise on average...
