I do not tip anyone and did not overseas either really.
I did not visit America.
What is minimum wage? I think that it ought to be at least sustainable for the country comparability to cost of living.
I have no idea what my hourly rate is. I suppose I earn approx $40/hour in real terms, but considering the cost of living, I do not consider that very great. In Chiang Mai, that income would put me in perhaps the top 10%-20% of people rather than maybe the top 45% of people where I live. Cost of living is paramount
