Would you rather:
Have $50,000 a year income but be a NEET, able to do what you want, travel, do cool things (could go south east Asia for 3 months a year and live off $2 a day)
OR earn 400k dollars a year, but wage slaving For someone/some company, 9-5, 5 days a week with only 22 days holiday per year ???
>9-5, 5 days a week with only 22 days holiday
Kek, I live in America. For that salary it would be more like 6am-7pm, with 10 vacation days that you get scolded for using
So you would choose the NEET option?
>work 3 years
>live minimally
>save most of the money
>now have 20+ years of what I would have obtained otherwise, and can invest what I'm not using in the meantime
Um gee retard I dunno
I kind of hate this hypothetical because it's making me depressed but I would still choose option 2 and just save like a psychopath
Does the 50k a year increase by 2% a year due to inflationp?
I think if you aren't planning on having a family, definitely the NEET option.
Actually thinking inflation is only 2% a year. Ngmi
There’s literally no positions paying 400k.
They pay enough to make you come back, never enough to let you to leave.
Neet all the way!!! I would have some nice things but live simple.
$50k NEET this isn't even a question.
So comfy
50k, live with parents for a couple years to save up for citizensship in Portugal or some shit
$400k is the President’s salary
There are many positions in the US that pay 400K Europoor. Maybe not the average salary for the position, but if you’re in the top 35% of certain areas you can absolutely accomplish this.
There is no ‘wage slave’ in North America who is making 400k a day.
400k a year you shit smearing drooling mouth breathing spastic retard
Year*
This. I'd just get fired from the $400k job eventually anyway.
Simmer down, boy.
Point remains. And if I’m wrong. Show me a 9-5 where someone is working for a company and making 400k.
first one fucking hell without a doubt. If I made 400k as a wagie 50% of it would be taken as taxes anyways.
Software engineers at netflix do
50k was 71st percentile income
of course option 1
My dad was making 700k a year + stock options at the height of his corporate finance career, but it was a little more than 9-5.
option 1, no question. i make my living as a painter anyway, so it'd really just help me pay for a studio/supplies
We’re talking 1% of 1% of workers that are making 400k+ as a slaver.
Is it possible? Sure.
Plus there’s always a caveat like stock options.
I'll take the big brain approach
NEET - WAGIE - NEET - WAGIE
I've worked multiple jobs until I can't mentally handle it any more and then back my hours/drop jobs to relax. Sometimes I'm just not feeling the spark creatively or feel interested in my hobbies so I take 6 month periods where I work like a dog. Does good for the bank account too.
50K a year is upper-class money here, so yes.
>"So, user... we've noticed a... gap... in your resume. Care explaining? Actually, no. SECURITY!"
NEET life all the way.
The 400K+ positions are very demanding. You have to actually be driven to do them. My father earned that kind of pay and he has reserves of willpower and determination I'll never match. It's like those videos of 19 year olds who make millions describing how hard they worked on their platforms, making their business, hustling... whatever. I lack their willpower.
>$2 a day in SEA
Not possible anymore, maybe 15$ per day then yea
>t. South east asian
NEET, everytime.
time > money
Fuck those people lol
‘Hustling’ hustling what..their ass pics on insta?
