The amount of wealth and futures wiped out over the last 10 years. One or two generations. If you had N150m in your pension account in 2015, that's >$1m If you've grown it to N300m today, that's ~ $200k. It took away peopleโ€™s ability to Iive a good life today and still nukedโ€ฆ

In 2015, the year I was in grad school, N600k was $3000. Now it is about $400. No this would never stop shocking me

Me core. In addition to being happy for you, itโ€™s real life tangible replicable proof that I can do it too. Money strangers have, is theoretical. They could be lying. It could be impossible. But once a friend pulls it off, itโ€™s that much closer. That much nearer.

One thing thatโ€™s annoying about being a software engineer is that youโ€™re surrounded by people who have strong opinions about the stupidest possible stuff that couldnโ€™t possibly ever matter even a little bit. This is your whole career. Itโ€™s just arguments like this one over andโ€ฆ

โ€œYou were not paid salary for one monthโ€ is a deceptive choice of words. This tricks a readerโ€™s brain to believe that itโ€™s just one month. No. Itโ€™s not like youโ€™re just being owed one monthโ€™s salary. You lost your source of income. Losing your job means you will not be paid forโ€ฆ

This may be a 'privileged' opinion, but if youโ€™ve worked in an industry that puts you in the top 5% of salary earners in your country for a while, and you resort to this because you were not paid salary for one month, then youโ€™ve been living way above means. More so if you areโ€ฆ
