Ill take that 5000K per month, move to cheap state and reinvest 1.5K every month at 7%/year (ill find a way). In 23 years (58yo) i will save another million + will have spent 1million at 3.5K/month.

Retire at 35 and i'll take $5000/month ;)

I know that this is not limited to the cruise ship industry and I do "vote with my dollar". Just as with avoiding cruise ships and resorts of this type I avoid cheap manufactured products coming from countries with questionable la

Did you miss the part about his big family?

Ummm living costs eating up everything? He did not have any disposable income to invest?

This is why I am never ever going on a cruise ship (or any resort in Mexico, Dominican etc). Knowing that the guy serving you is basically a slave working for pennies while you are supposed to enjoy your vacation and relax- I couldn't,

130k salary is absurdly high amount of money for people outside of IT and finance. Stop living in a bubble. It will price out a lot of talent that will be forced to leave the country. Wich is a huge mistake for American society.

There are not. By the time you graduate with a masters or PhD you often accomplish a body of research work in a SPECIFIC field, have publications, patents. So yes you are a "fresh" grad but with 5-10 published scientific papers to

Yes, there is a problem paying 130k. For a masters or even phd straight out of school that's a lot. (I'm excluding you living in bubbles like SF).

The abuse of h1b program by IT firms is the issue that has to be separated out and resolved on its own. There is no reason why we should send a freshly graduated physics scientist back to Uganda or whatever because he can't find an emp

Who do you think is driving a lot of the research work at the biotech start ups that the Merc and others are buying up?
436.
by readhn 10y ago
You are clearly outside of the field. There are tons of jobs in the biotech industry for qualified graduates. The issue is finding people with appropriate scientific and industry backgrounds. This is why h1bs are hired. I don't care wh

You clearly don't understand the inner workings of the immigration system and what's happening with the educational system as well. It's a shame especially considering the hardships your immigrant dad had to go through to giv

Have you seen the article where Siemens tried hiring people for the new factory...and the majority of American people who showed up to apply couldn't even pass school level tests...? Educational system in usa is broken. THAT should be

Let's hope you are not in a life/death situation later in your life where you get some disease for which treatment could have been available earlier if that foreign student was "allowed" to stay and do the work in the US

A lot of people with core science backgrounds are working on h1b visas today in this country. This bill can really screw up a lot of lives.
441.
by readhn 10y ago
After you graduate you have to get h1b to work. Nobody is going to pay straight out of school biologist 130k.

by readhn 10y ago
Whoever is working on the bill is disconnected from reality and the damage it is doing long term here. Why's everyone so focused on IT? Everyone can learn how to code, it's not a real science.. Oh it's hacker news :) Now walk

There is no investment. There is only speculation. Speculation that the asset price will increase. Speculation that your purchase will return higher value in the future. In order to be successful at speculation you do have to have certain t

Walk into any modern hospital central lab today, look at the life saving technology thats available to us and ask yourself why we still have not figured out how to give other people access to this? paper centrifuge? come on...

we, the citizens who vote are supposed to do that.

by readhn 10y ago
What actions? We keep voting for the government that chooses to fund programs that kill people instead of saving lives. Iraq - Iran - 1 million dead Vietnam - up to 4 million dead Afghanistan - up to 1.5 million dead + trillions of dollars

yes i have a better solution - kill one of those multibillion military projects and redirect the money to buy lifesaving medical equipment to the places that need it. equip research facilities with equipment and provide local training. pape
