Rant: My client work went from local ads to full documentaries in under two years

Spot the same thing with fiona_carr26's point about fast money. See it all the time, like when a friend chases a fancy promotion that takes a year but misses out on steady overtime pay right now. Or people waiting for a "perfect" apartment while paying too much for a bad one month after month. Chasing the big, slow win can make you miss a dozen smaller, real ones.
