In The Netherlands and the EU there are quite a few well-known whistleblowers who received the short-end of the stick. One example would be Paul van Buitenen [0].
It's really risky to become a whistleblower and if you do, you better be able to live the rest of your life on your finances, because it might become very hard after becoming a whistleblower to receive another well-paying job. Also be prepared to deal with a lot of stress that might impact your health and mental wellbeing.

- jacquesm 5y agoTo receive another job, never mind the 'well-paying' bit. Companies would be scared shitless to hire someone that might expose their dirty laundry, especially if they already have a track record of doing so. If there is one thing that is pretty certain then it is that whistleblowers get to blow the whistle exactly once.
