Ask HN: How to increase SWE salaries in Europe?
I got my higher education for free. I expect to save nothing for my children or their education. I expect to have to put aside very little for retirement.<p>The thing is, I just can’t find an argument why I should be able to get very rich doing my job. It’s a comfortable job. It pays a good salary. I got here by taking no risk at all. I wouldn’t want to switch jobs just to drive up my pay even if I could. I have other things to think about. I have worked 20 years in the same job and so have my colleagues. This is a cultural difference I feel.
