So I'm 20 and I've started looking at the salaries of jobs/careers, and this is the impression I've gotten. Like that you could spend years cramming a ton of knowledge about a very niche field, and still only get 2-3x what a run-of-the-mill job makes. Is this true? If yes then I guess this route to wealth would only make sense (due to the diminishing returns) if the topic truly spoke to you, right? Are there alternative career paths to good pay than being really good at something really specific?

LABEL YOUR FUCKING AXIS AAAAAAAAAA

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

X would be hardness of job and y would be salary

I'm actually not sure how you'd label the axis here. The info being conveyed is the relationship between two separate things.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago

I can clear that up for you. The X axis is vibes and the Y axis is vibe dependent vibes.
