I personally don't know anyone who works in finance, but I doubt that many of them are ashamed of what they do. And I know plenty of people in tech, and most of them are actually proud and well respected by their peers for it. So I guess it's just wishful thinking from the Guardian.
- taternuts 9y agoAnecdotal, but I actually work with someone who was in finance making 10x what the average programmer makes who gave it all up in his late 20's to code because he felt at the end of the day he was just ripping people off and morally hated it. Probably not the usual case, though (I'd like to think I'd do the same, but man, that was a lot of money to give up)
