Americans are finally catching up to Third World standards. It's pretty common to work two jobs and juggle between them, it's just that you used to be able to have a decent life with one revenue stream. It seems that after covid this will no longer be the case. ;)

Even funnier, the rich are needing to catch up to third world standards. The poor have been working multiple jobs in America for a very long time.
I know younger joking, sort of, but an averagely talented and experienced engineer can easily support a family with one income now. This article is really about how to do some game theory stuff to maximize income and be “financially free”. Something working two jobs in the third world will never provide.
