So it's really not the astronomical salary, it's the astronomical debt.
- johnnyanmac 11mo agoYes and no. The compensation is a lot, but you're not necessarily able to just quit on a dime even if you live humbly. Interviewing takes weeks now and weeks more just to find a proper replacement. And salaries can fund you for months, bu t not years (let alone if you have a fammily) I'll also say the obvious here in Sinclair's quote about salaries: you can indeed pay for someone's self respect.
- MichaelZuo 11mo agoThis would imply most of these types of positions are filled with less competent people willing to package and sell their self respect alongside their time? (Thus commanding a rate similar to a more competent person who doesn’t package it to sell.)
