By using Indian workers you are helping to provide a living wage for people who really need it, not just for “beer money”.

I 1million% agree with giving the money to the worker in need, and I myself would opt for the Indian as well if quality is the same.

But, my suspicion is that everyone on beermoney actually has no other income :(

Did you really just belittle my 60+ hour work weeks and 45 minute commutes as some frivolity?

Do I have a choice about whether or not I have to hold down a job? No. No I don’t.

Do I have a choice about the level of competition I must bring to the table to simply tread water? No. No I don’t.

If I had a choice, I’d never program another piece of code again, but hey. Yeah, beer money. Like I have a life whereupon I enjoy it enough to drink beer.

I did not interpret matte_black's comment as belittling at all, the post being responded to literally talked about people on the r/beermoney subreddit.
