    Hard to believe people work sixty hours. Got a decent living over here in Europe and am currently reducing from 40 to 35, just because.

              Everyone doesn’t live in 1st world countries.

              I’m in one of those places where people barely make a living even after pretty much working to death. I am still a student and I have been lucky enough to be born into a more fortunate family. I don’t have firsthand experience, so I will give an example.

              A good example is my teachers. They have a 6 to 5 job 6 days of the week, and their monthly salary is equivalent to 865USD.

              The fact that I can use the internet and tech as much as I want is a blessing
