Not to mention across demographics. Plenty of people don’t use Reddit for reasons of taste, time, or simply access.

Plus, there’s definitely a bias towards bragging about ones high salary (whether real or imagined). Not a lot of us who are struggling like to broadcast exactly how much we’re struggling. It fucking sucks, and the majority of our lives are spent dealing with that fact.

You’re operating on anecdotal evidence in a heavily biased context. This is why you’re getting the downvotes you deserve. Get your head out of your ass.
