I have been a scrum master for a couple of years. If you can facilitate, teach some scrum basics, and have some ability to get good work from people it's the easiest job there is

Unfortunately my "train" downsized and my team was dissolved (the team was 80% contract staff in a government IT area, and we had to lose all the contract people) and I've been moved to a product owner role

PO isn't going to be nearly as easy, but it has a good chance of being more fun

If you're competent, a SM is invaluable, however it's one of the easiest to replace role. As an example, almost all of the engineers in my division has a PSM I certification. So all the SM do is just facilitate meetings. When we started we have around 5 SMs but currently only have 1 because all of the SMs are redundant since the team already know how scrum works.
