I disagree. Even if we have a recession-induced slowdown or intermission in the middle, the wave will stick keep on going through the end of the decade. After 2030 there are STILL a lot of retirements compared to times past.

I'm pretty confidant that someone starting today, who is very aggressive in punching the tickets, could get a legacy or good major job within 4-6 years and still have a little wave left over.

I agree there's no time to waste, but it's not quite too late.
