$100 is still a decent salary somewhere? Oof
- mgkimsal 6y agowas thinking the same thing. a couple of quick searches show that, Thailand, for example, has a ~315 baht minimum daily wage, which is around $10. Assuming ~20 work days, that would still be ~$200/month minimum. It seems there's probably some places where this $100/month might be a decent supplement in some parts of the world, but still doesn't seem like a 'livable wage' on its own anywhere.
- pl-94 6y agoApparently [1] 2 billions of people live under 100$ a month. But my guess is that those people do not have access to a computer, or it might be quite challenging to provide an office not to far from their place with internet.
