Getting a STEM degree is a low probability event, say 1 in 10, then getting in google is another low probability event, say 1 in 10. So making it sound easy/likely seems misleading. I was acknowledging that there are things you can do to improve your odds. Einstein didn’t make it into the Google of his day. He worked as a patent clerk for some time while working on groundbreaking physics until he was accepted.
It’s okay to be an average income earner, most are. Don’t get too hung up on something that isn’t likely for you.
Also don’t forget what is valued can change. A farmer might be very lucky and valued, by a chance turn of events. If your doing well, be kind and try to raise the floor up for lesser income earners. Maybe they’ll remember you well if you have a turn of bad luck.
