Is being a stem fag outside the US just a big meme (especially in Europe)?

90-100k€ (all-in, 40h) is considered as end game and ceiling for stem people (well, the good ones and even then only like 15% can reach this) in Germany, everyone else earns around 60-75k€ until they retire.
Renting a 50-60m2 flat costs you 1200-1500€ per month in big cities and only there you get proper jobs.
Take a look at this:

Doctors or lawyers make at least double, more likely triple of that.

Cannot win with stocks, cannot win with crypto, cannot buy real estate.
Cannot do anything even as a top earner at MANGA/FAGMAN (which only nets you 10-15% more than pic related).
>no tariff
>workload more than 40h/w although you are paid only for 40h
>it's expected that you are reachable 24/7 and to work on the weekend
>managment decisions are all done in the US
>although hire&fire is not possible in Europe, the mentality stays the same and pip culture makes your life hell
>located mostly in the most expensive cities in Europe (Dublin, London, Munich, Zurich) and COL + taxes + housing market will fuck you up
>only advantages RSU and other stock options get destroyed by European socialism tax

What am I supposed to do?
Consume and waste my money?
Slave forever in my job and be happy to own nothing?

INB4 some fag recommends remote work in a low-cost area.
None of the big companies allow you to work full remote, it's always 3-4 office days and 1-2 home office days.
And before you recommend Meta or some US startups, Meta has a hire freeze and for everything else that's even less likely than getting into FAGMAN itself here in Europe.


Your parents should have forced you to swallow the med or law pill.
TFW you will never make it in Europe without being born into old money.

Just work on your soft skills sir, you are giving off bad vibes sir, you are toxic sir. If you were any good sir, you would be earning top buck sir. I have a friend who is really good sir, 150k euro salary sir, he lives in europe really poor country sir but he is very smart sir and knows how to sell his knowledge sir.

Being a doctor or a lawyer is a serious job.
You can learn programming on your own in a year if you aren't retarded.

if by "learn programming" you mean "get an internship or help desk position" then sure. you could also become a nurse's aid or paralegal in a similar amount of time.

The trappings of the demiurge are for the possession of its chosen henchmen.

If you were to get these how do you know you wont be flat, empty or transient?

Oh, it's a window I think.
This AI generated? Strange architecture. Very strange.
No. Maybe it's a door.

And then what? Most companies won't even look at your resume without a degree or experience

Lol doctors in Europe get paid peanuts. 80% of medical graduates in Ireland are considering leaving.
