Convenience store workers in the US earn about 20K USD per year - that is double the salary what a comp sci fresher from a tier 2 college (non-IIT) would earn in India. And that's a reasonable salary - at 10K USD per year, you can eat out everyday at pizza hut ("regular" food is cheaper), drink a couple of times a week and share a 3 bedroom apartment.

- sdrothrock 11y agoThe "deviant-art-like-but-good" bit is probably referring to pixiv, a popular Japanese art site. You're not going to live anywhere near a comfortable life in Tokyo on 2 million JPY a year, much less 1 million JPY a year. Convenience store workers here make around 950 yen/hr depending on what shift you're working on. Assuming you find somewhere super cheap and livable (we're talking slightly larger than a single bed, maybe not even including a bathroom) for 50000 yen/mo, that's already 600,000 yen/yr on housing alone. You can see that there's not much left over for utilities, food, transportation, clothes, medical, etc... and we're not even talking taxes and luxuries.
