I have a good friend from the UK who is a software engineer.
Pay in England was so bad he became a US citizen and moved to CA.
Same with Israel and Russia.
Zero incentive to become engineers as the pay is so poor.
I would have taken a 40% pay cut to stay in Israel with a CA cost of living back in ‘99.
You wouldn't believe the texts I get on Telegram from lovely young Asian women wanting to "start a conversation." Then there's the dozen plus voicemails I get from lenders that have pre-approved me for signature loans ranging from $30K-$75K. I just need to "fill in a few details" and they'll fund the loan in 24 hours.
Yeah, just enough time to hack into my bank account...lol.
