Hoo boy, where to begin with this one. You do realize that there are people who broke into tech despite coming from extremely poor backgrounds, and use most of their take-home money to support their families, right? Or students with massive student loan debts that they are currently paying down? Or even just people from median financial backgrounds but have to support their families in a high CoL area?
- moonchrome 4y agoThat doesn't compute - if you come from a poor background your family is used to surviving with below average income - moving to a high income (>2-3x average) leaves you with enough income to save up emergency fund for 6 months. Source - came from poor background, had to support family earning 3-4x average income.
- phillipcarter 4y agoYour experience is commendable, and I'm glad you've been able to break out of lower income. But this does not match what I've seen with some of my peers.
