What is a good age to start thinking about leaving your career in the tech field and transitioning into a more reliable and less stressful field?
What field would you choose?
Why?

Tech in a bank may be a stressful and unreliable job, but it's probably the least stressful, most reliable professional job in the bank, maybe outside compliance. I'm not sure I get your perspective.

@4hlo, the whole question makes numerous assumptions. The choice of a career in tech is a personal choice and how successful one is in this field is dependent on circumstances more than actual ability. The circumstances these days are hindered by the "reverse discrimination" diversity which favors some groups above others for some reason, which is discrimination in itself hence "reverse discrimination". This affects salaries, career advancement, and opportunities available.

So many assumptions in this post.
If H1b and other visas crackdown continues, tech will go back to normal
Don't transition to anything else! That's what is killing this country. You only think that others are better than you, but this is something you need to work on yourself in terms of your own psychology as you may find that you will experience the same thing in whatever else you go into. It's a shame that diversity (as if diversity has some kind of benefit) is favored over competence at this time but hang in there, things are changing. While discrimination is a bad thing, reverse discrimination is even worse.
Learned the science in grammar school. Field is oversaturated with too many talented people.
The earlier the better. And mortuary science is your best bet. It'll likely be at least a few years before death is obsolete.
