im an undergrad doing an integrated master's, finishing this year. atm i live on welfare in the student dormitory and looking up the phd salaries (not even postdoc) makes me drool. a decent salary to do what's probably the best job in the world is literally the best thing one could ask for

what's your field btw?

All I want is 40k/yr for the rest of my life and to be able to have a career in research or teaching uni level.
Fuck luxuries, vacations or any of that shit. Fuck having kids.

If I can afford food, rent, transport, heating cooling, healthcare, new books whenever I want, a new laptop every 3 years and subscriptions to science journals, im set.

Ill live in a fucking van if i have to. just no way in hell am i going to spend my life doing anything other than something enjoyable in my field
