I would be so glad to be able to live in this shithole country somewhat comfortably. :( I don’t doubt it’s extra stress and extra work being higher up the “ladder”, but it’s hard to imagine it’s more stressful than living paycheck-to-paycheck and having to make decisions about whether it’s more urgent to pay for food or medication this week. One group worries about work decisions 8 hours a day (maybe more, if salaried or on call), the other worries about basic survival 24 hours a day.
