This. I am in India and my cousins already make so much lesser than I do it's not even fair. They work harder physically, and their work life balance is shit. At some point they realized software pays a lot more and some of them tried to switch, but they didn't get the time in their jobs to study, and while I switched from a blue collar factory worker role to a content writer role and to a software developer, the times (2014) were largely different. Nowadays it's like the gate into this field is shut in everybody's face and it's sad seeing them regret not switch sooner. Not everyone enjoys the same advantages we get, and sometimes it's as simple as a reduced work week that let's you study, improve, or just pick up a new hobby to make life fulfilling.
