Tech pays so much more though, and you don’t have to kill yourself either for it? (genuinely can’t imagine doing 80-100 hour work weeks) IBD is a dead meme at this point in my opinion. Like how being a lawyer used to be the most lucrative c

It’s interesting how people don’t realize Google is basically saving these advertisers from bankruptcy, and yet they’re still complaining. You realize Google could just have done what Apple is doing and completely get rid of all third party
