I live in Belgium. it's not really worth it here.
if you make 5000 eur / month before tax you take home 2800. better to not work hard its not worth it anyway. muh career hardworkers make maybe a few hundred euros more than those who do a pleb job. so why work hard? Personally I don't work at all at this moment. Ex DevOps engineer. Man have I been deceived. my first job I took home 1600 eur NET and my last job I took home 2000 eur NET ( 4 years later ). I also switched jobs 3 times. I had to quit cause they didn't want to give raises. fucking scammers. so glad I got into Bitcoin else i'd probably KMS

I don't know. What I do know is that I stopped putting in effort and I just do as the immigrants do. minimum effort, leech the system. FUCK IT. Oh my dreams were shattered quickly. I was so happy when I aquired my degree in IT. Oh I'm gonna work and build a nice carreer, get a good paycheck! I had to do the hardest / most difficult work (DevOps) and got paid fucking SHIT. the office stacies drink a coffe, fill an excel and do meetings about company culture for 6 hours a day and earn as much if not MORE than me. FUCKING SCAM.

Oh I remember when I was a young boyy hoping to make it with my fancy IT degree. no one wants to pay, only exploit you.

I haven't gotten any benifits the past year. I went travelling a lot. have been buying crypto since 2017. checked out of workslavery completely. Now I have to think about things. I am thinking about exiting to Brazil or Colombia. but im worried about the violence and kidnappings. I could live freely and like a king for many years, decades with what I have accomulated thanks to crypto. I don't want to wageslave for 40 years to pay off the mortgage here. I also don't want to cash out my crypto and pay a big tax. FUCK THIS BS

we're talking about a CPU in full load vs 5-10% load, it's really only a difference of 30-40W at most. Get a wattmeter and test it yourself

it's all nonsense. not the size of these gains, but rather the lack of path towards outsized benefits when performance is similarly outsized
no proportionality = brain drain. simple as. the number of us who could do useful work yet are pushed to neet it up or move to the states, vs the number of useless politicians and middlemen. EU is a joke
