Ok sorry but like I'm not gonna read your comment history for that, I believe you if you say you're in America. Plenty of people have lived in both.

Anyway. I just pulled those job titles randomly from the BLS statistics, you can find an arbitrary number of them which are that or near that. https://data.bls.gov/oes/#/industry/000000

One hundred thousand American dollars is not some magic number. It's a high wage but still a fairly ordinary one now. It's a decent wage for quality of life but it doesn't put you in charge of or representing anything.

  • That's great, but its still not OOP's-victim -levels of peon, either. The distance between the two is as great as that between "only desperate people would ever take an un-paid internship" and the truth; The reality is that only the extremely well-off can afford to take on such an internship.
