what's the point of coming on an obscure forum to larp

>>51305260
How much in real dollars and how much in stocks you can't sell for years?

>>51305286
Kek it’s European hours

>>51305286
how do you know it's false? there are people that make 10x that

>>51305286
If you live in some areas that's the standard because the cost of living is so insanely high. Not even joking.

>>51305323
still
earn 500k in an area that costs 400k and you save 100k per year
earn 100k in an area that costs 80k and you save 20k per year
which one would you prefer?
you stay in the high one and after a decade move to somewhere cheaper

>>51305285
It's yearly compensation (I pay taxes on all of it), so all real dollars.

The payroll software is a bit buggy so it's missing some of my vests.

>>51305197
English doctors pay half for food.

>>51305197

i still dont care

>>51305286

>Getting paid to unlock the pills
Doctors have been riding the coat-tails of chemists, engineers and actual scientists for longer than anyone here has been alive.

>>51305286
>healthcare data scientist making $275k/year
anon I work for a health system as a glorified codemonkey and make more than most of the physicians too

>>51305601
What's a data scientist?

>>51305620
i tell computer to make prediction. i tell physician executives the number and they think I'm a magician

>>51305197
A security guard in America makes more after taxes than a Doctor here in Austria lol

>>51305197
Doctors are prostitutes for big pharma lmfao

>>51305420
Are you software developer? I’m looking to get into cyber security. Are you a computer nerd or just so so at computers. Also do you like your job.

>>51305776

>>51305420
Wha do you do with software developing and how do I be like you?

Zoloft.

American engineers make more than my nations prime minister.

I am pretty sure that entry level doctors in the UK make less money than the people stocking shelves at my local Walmart. The local Wallyworld is hiring people at $18 / hr for that, or $36k a year. According to below, beginning salaries for britbong doctors starts at £29,384, $33.7 k USD at current exchange rates. Granted the doctor wage will go up a fair bit as they get experience.

Time is more valuable than money. I'm a NEET making $0 a year (besides some staking rewards) but have endless free time. You can buy a fancy German car, but you can't but more time.

>>51305420
based. how do i get like you? I work at google and my base is only 135k (rsus are 200k)

>>51305197
Engineers don't murder people

>>51306289
18 to 22 an hour is like 13 an hour after tax

>>51305197
american construction workers make more than german software developers

doctors are a scam, they don't even know how aspirin fully works.

most of them are practically glorified nurses following a script.

>>51305197
>*speaks in decreased life expectancy*

>>51312223
And tell me what exactly it is you do with your time?

>>51305197
i mean doctors are just fancy drug pushes so..

>>51305651
How did you get to that role/compensation?
I studied engineering, now I work in IT sales and it's boring. Been learning SQL & Python but I don't want to go back to school... Please advise anon

>>51318341
I've met doctors that are complete fucking morons. That's when you realize that any mindless NPC that's good at following directions can become a doctor.

Construction work here is such a meme. My cousin makes like $120k/year and meanwhile one of my neighbors works for a company that when I checked online pays you like $18/hour....while Target pays $15/hour. It's wildly up to who you work for, I guess?

>>51317979
American Doctors pretty much just pretty much just prescribe antibiotics. Or refer you to a specialists

>>51305197
You can't be poor in America. If you unironically have a shit wagie job in America you are just legit retarded.
Fucking welders make 60-100k/year. Even if you're a retard you can get rich.

>>51318726
yep pretty much this. American salaries are ridiculous, I remember seeing my job here in the UK for which I was being paid 28k GBP a year could easily make 90-100k in the US. You guys live life on giga ez mode

>>51305420
Can you give me some money?

>>51318800
And cost of living isn't even that much higher in the US compared to Europe. The only thing that is ridiculous is rent/mortgage but the rest is very cheap.

You're on the right path if you're at Google. You need to learn the skills that big companies need. Building working software isn't good enough. You have to know how to design and build really robust, scalable, well-designed systems. Those skills aren't worth much to tiny companies that work on small data, pleasing a small customer base. If you have these skills, your decisions can be leveraged at large scale where it's a no-brainer for a large company to pay you a generous compensation.

With understanding and experience building reliable, scaling, and maintainable systems you become invaluable to companies. After you have the technical chops, then it's about people problems.

Pic related is a good book to read when you're ready for it.
