Hi guys,
Just wanted to go on a rant a little, and get something off my chest, don't mind me.
I live in France, in a city called “Lyon”, I have a master's degree, I make 40k euros gross (that's 45k dollars)…and you know what? I'm in the 70th-75th percentile in France, and my pay is typical for a master's degree holder where I live, it's quite normal.
Now I compare myself to Americans with similar degrees, and you guys make 80-100-150 and even sometimes 200k+ dollars with similar degrees !
I feel so garbage in comparison: I worked my ass off for years, I've tried real hard to get in a good university and…I was born in the wrong country.
This sucks man, it really does.
