Let's not get carried away here. I can make 50k eventually, but to be given it as a lump sum is a big deal. Like you said it's a year's salary.

50k is enough to get a decent car and a down-payment on a decent home (outside of the major metros) nothing to sneeze at.

Honestly a year's wage is a lot to recieve all at once anywhere in the world.

Knowing that there’s trillions in unpaid taxes, I feel as if though we are all deserved 20 hour work weeks and massive government subsidies while we get to watch a bunch of tech bros duke it out to the death in a gladiator style arena where their dork asses are given nothing but their own hands
