This is an awful take. From experience, being “wealthy” in a third world country translated to being on one of the lowest brackets of poverty here in the USA.

  but if you're earning "a lot" in 3rd world country, then you probably have e.g skills and with skills it'll be easier for you to transfer yourself and you aren't going to start from the bottom

    Do you think you are born with those skills? When I was a kid I remember staying up past midnight always to finish my math homework. I had seen a bit of news saying that being good at math was key to becoming a video game developer, and that was enough to give me hope.

      I had a computer when basically nobody else had one and I had the chance to learn programming when almost nobody in my country even knew what it is. I also had relatively wealthy parents which enabled me to save up to move/emmigrate. Emmigrating to a wealthy country is crazy expensive. Plane flights, rent/down payment etc Which all boils down how massive of an advantage being wealthy is/middle class is even if that wealth is peanuts by US standards
