Besides, in my profession we make more than the managers.
This is the same here, the difference is the payout when the company goes public. It would be a pay cut on the front end, but a large sum on the backend.

Nothing. Sounds like the good side of him is winning. We all self-doubt… only assholes assume they’ll never fail.

The Five Types of Impostor Syndrome
According to researcher Dr. Valerie Young, there are five impostor types:
The Perfectionist. This type of imposter syndrome involves believing that, unless you were absolutely perfect, you could have done better. You feel like an imposter because your perfectionistic traits make you believe that you're not as good as others might think you are.
The Expert. The expert feels like an imposter because they don't know everything there is to know about a particular subject or topic, or they haven't mastered every step in a process. Because there is more for them to learn, they don't feel as if they've reached the rank of "expert."
The Natural Genius. In this imposter syndrome type, you may feel like a fraud simply because you don't believe that you are naturally intelligent or competent. If you don't get something right the first time around or it takes you longer to master a skill, you feel like an imposter.
The Soloist. It's also possible to feel like an imposter if you had to ask for help to reach a certain level or status. Since you couldn't get there on your own, you question your competence or abilities.
The Superperson. This type of imposter syndrome involves believing that you must be the hardest worker or reach the highest levels of achievement possible and, if you don't, you are a fraud.

frick that shite. Moving kids around constantly because daddy got transferred will frick up your kids. It's different with military families because wherever you get transferred to has a built-in community of other military transfer families, but in the private sector, frick all that.

Leveling up is intimidating, it can fill you with self doubt and as you say make you feel like an imposter… But once you do it and have a look around you realize everyone else is winging it as they go too.

You have already talked through the discussion and you are just having trouble with implementation.
Either stop sabotaging what you are articulating as a needful move and be unstoppable in getting this job done.
Or resign yourself to perpetual regret over a what-might-have-been in your life.
But make a decision and then make that decision work without flinching.

Lulz, no. Military families don't give much of a shite, because someone is leaving in 90 days, or 6 months, you're leaving in a year, there is no camaraderie there. There is no built in community. Maybe you live on base, maybe off base, maybe you live in a hotel for seven months waiting for housing (happened to me.)
Move the kids. They'll be fine. They'll make new friends, get a chance to reinvent themselves, etc. Private sector got *far* more benefits than mil families did.

For a second then I realize the vast majority of upper/middle management I have ever seen is retarded.

I was in the final two to be over all the labs in a major hospital chain. Flew into HQ and had an excellent interview until they asked me about my "vision" for my future position. Well, I did have some ideas but they were so concrete they really didn't sound like a "vision" (if that makes sense). I essentially sabotaged myself with a silly answer, really bad. The guy had told me I'd start in six figures and that he could tell I was smarter than 98% of the people there. And He would be "disappointed" if I didn't get a promotion within a year. My biggest professional failure. I think maybe I subconsciously wanted to fail so as not having to move away from family, but that maybe be just an excuse.

peter principal
The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to "a level of respective incompetence": employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent

Is moving something you and your family would be ok with? If no, then it’s reasonable to decline the offer(s).
I somewhat forced myself into management last year and almost backed out at the last minute. I knew I could do the technical parts of the job, pretty much had been doing it for a year since the previous manager left, but had some reservations about taking on the people/HR stuff. I just told myself that I’m doing 95% of the job already so I might as well get paid accordingly. You won’t know everything in the new job and no one expects you to, you’ll fill in the gaps as you go which is normal. I work to make money so I figured why not try to make as much as possible for the hours I put in.

You’re going to need several heroic doses of psychedelics to kill your ego and learn who you truly are as a person.
