If you only look at the Internet, the more you look at yourself, the worse you become.
Passers-by on Douyin said that "men who earn less than 10,000 yuan a month are not qualified to get married", and Zhihu "The post-00 generation earns 30,000 yuan a month, but they say that they have no sense of accomplishment", and then look at those food bloggers who can eat their own monthly salary with one meal.
If you look at the recent network information, it is even more magical,The takeaway brother earned 1.02 million in 3 years to repay debts and deliver takeaways;
Young people enter the industry and earn 40,000 yuan a month for decoration;
The post-00s boys received 200,000 yuan a year;
The post-00s girl picked up a sledgehammer and smashed the wall with a monthly income of 30,000;
Wuhan's post-90s accountants changed careers to do housekeeping with a monthly income of 40,000;
Girls graduate from college and earn 30,000 yuan a month by selling roast pigs;
After resigning, he earned 50,000 yuan a month by setting up a stall;
Is this world so easy to make money? Everyone can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month.
The whole world makes easy money, only he is a cow and a horse Yueyue has no rest, and even does it upside down in vain?
But we have to know that generally speaking, the more we lack something, the more we will show it, so the more information this kind of easy money network is, the more it actually means how difficult it is to make money now.
We also need to know,On the Internet, in fact, 5% of the people in society have 95% of the right to speak.
The Internet is like an amplifier, the silent continue to be silent, and the hustle and bustle floods the network.
So we always feel that the Internet is too far away from our real life.
Don't be ** by the Internet, let's take a look at the real income on this land.
According to Xinhua News Agency,The number of working-age population at the end of 2022 was 8800 millionThis is the number of migrant workers in China.
Let's start with a big backgroundIt is a common phenomenon in society that the monthly salary of a worker is less than 5,000.
Of course, we can often see that the average monthly salary in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen is more than 10,000 yuan, and even the monthly salary in second-tier cities is not less than six or seven thousand.
What does the average monthly salary say? "Average" means very susceptible to a small group of high-income earners.
Yao Ming and I are of average height, I am also a 2-meter man, and if I and Musk have an average wealth, I will also be hundreds of billions of dollarsBut the question is, do I want to be equal with others, and they are willing to share it with me? When I ask people, they think I'm sick.
So the average is meaningless, looking at the average, everyone feels that they are dragging the motherland back, and they are still pulling the motherland's **.
We have almost heard since we were children that "no matter how great the suffering is divided by the billions of people in China, it is insignificant".
But in reality, who wants to let us get rid of our suffering?
With such a high income of others, are you willing to be equal with others, and others are willing to give you points?
So the per capita deposit is nearly 100,000, do you have hundreds of thousands of deposits in your family?
So we always talk about how much per capita income and how much per capita savings are, and Bai Yansong also asked experts with a simple face on CCTV."Why don't ordinary people spend money when they have money?
I didn't find the latest median salary information in each city, but there is data for 2020, as for the latest data for 2023 compiled by netizens, I looked at it and basically looked at the data from 2020.
We all know in our hearts the situation in the past few years, and the current situation is not much better than this data.
It can be seen that the median salary is almost halved compared with the average salary, for example, the average monthly salary in Dongguan is 8,605 yuan, and the median salary is only 3,845 yuan.
Even in Beijing, most people's income is less than 7,000 yuan, in places like Beijing and Shanghai, although the income is not high, but the cost of living is high, the rent of a 30-square-meter single room in Beijing is about 2,700, and the average rent level is 91 yuan per square meter.
In addition to living, life also needs food, travel, water and electricity, etc., basically half of the salary can be blocked and wake up with a smile.
So 7,000 yuan a month in Beijing sounds very good, but in the end, there are really not many left.
Now why young people don't get married, don't have children, don't buy houses, don't buy cars, it's not because they're poor.
What kind of low desire society, it is normal for a society to have a very small number of people with low desire, how can there be a low desire of the majority?
In the end, it's not the helplessness of reality.
So it's really not to blame young people for not getting married and having childrenNow our fertility rate in Shanghai is lower than in South Korea.
Looking at the data, except for Beijing and Shanghai, there are almost no more than 6,000 in other cities.
Therefore, even if it is difficult to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month in first-tier cities, it is already more than most people with a monthly income of more than 6,000 yuan.
In addition to the average salary, the median salary, there is also a figure worth considering, the minimum wage.
Now our lowest and highest place is Shanghai, which is 2690 yuan.
There is another data worth referring to, before the National Development and Reform Commission's Department of Employment Income Distribution and Consumption and the China Institute of Income Distribution of Beijing Normal University released the "China Income Distribution Annual Report 2021", in which dataIt shows that there are 600 million people with a monthly income of less than 1,090 yuan, and 9 people with a monthly income of less than 2,0006.4 billion people.
It looks very incredible, but in 2020 our Prime Minister said at a press conference:
China is a developing country with a large population, and our per capita annual income is 30,000 yuan, but there are 600 million people with a monthly income of only 1,000 yuan. After the epidemic, people's livelihood is important.
At that time, this set of data caused a very heated discussion on the Internet.
But it also reveals the reality of China, and it also reflects the distance between the Internet and reality.
We can also see that the numbers above are roughly in agreement.
According to the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2023, the median per capita disposable income of residents in the country will be 33,036 yuan.
Among them, the median per capita disposable income of urban residents was 47,122 yuan;
The median per capita disposable income of rural residents was 18,748 yuan.
The per capita income we usually talk about is the per capita income of all Chinese citizens in this part of China, including not only the working population, but also the elderly and children and other people who have no income.
If we only look at the first-tier cities and the eastern coastal cities, we are already much better than the developed countries.
But what is the population of a first-tier city? Even if the total population of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and 15 new first-tier cities is only 30% of China's total population.
In addition to the cities, we also have rural areas, where there are nearly 300 million farmers, 90 million rural elderly, and 15.5 million left-behind children.
Many elderly people in rural areas do not have jobs, and it is very difficult to find errands to earn money, so they can only farm at a large age, and the land can not be planted, and the income may only be more than 100 pensions per month.
The voices of these people are barely visible to us on the internet, and this is also a group of people who are ignored by all kinds of data.
If you look at China more broadly, in fact, the monthly salary of 4,000 yuan has already exceeded most Chinese
If you don't believe it, you can go to a fourth- or fifth-tier town and ask a person in the service industry, many of whom have a salary of two or three thousand.
The gap between the Internet and reality is really almost a Pacific Ocean.
According to a survey data,Nearly 90% of migrant workers have worked for decades, and it is the norm for their monthly salary to be less than 10,000 yuan.
And a lot of the extravagance that we see on the Internet, but in fact, a lot of it is scripted, because these are traffic passwords.
If you read enough, you will often find a lot of bloggers with rich packaging, their offices and mansions are actually the same, and they appear many times in multiple accounts.
Why should rich people spend money in the province now, and should they share offices and residences?
In reality, we can also see that many rich people in reality are very low-key, and they will not swagger through the market on **, let alone blindly please and cater to the audience, unless they make a living from this.
We all know that this is the era of traffic, so the frequent spread of income anxiety on the Internet is actually for the emotional traffic behind it.
As a result of being guided by these emotional flows, many leeks are harvested in a targeted manner.
For example, we can often brush up on the use of free time to learn editing and easily earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, and learn to paint after work to easily earn more than 10,000 yuan a month.
After AI became popular, it was easy to earn more than 10,000 a month to learn AI after work, everyone has seen these contents more or less, and even seen a lot of AI works of that kind of students, such as AI articles, but actually flip through their accounts, this kind of traffic, this kind of income can easily earn more than 10,000 per month,Whoever believes in leeks
Back to reality, we used to often hear that the monthly income of food delivery and express delivery exceeded 10,000 yuan, but now we all know the situation, food delivery and online car-hailing have long been overcrowded, and have even become knowledge-intensive industries, that is to say, there are many undergraduates, master's students, and even doctoral students.
However, it is true that there are takeaways and construction sites with a monthly income of more than 10,000?
But is this kind of money really easy and easy to earn?
These monthly incomes of more than 10,000 yuan are actually more than ten hours a day, without a few days off a month, with their own blood and sweat, and with their own rest.
Even we know that many factories have a salary of six or seven thousand, but in fact, the basic salary is two or three thousand, and if you want to get six or seven thousand, you have to work all kinds of overtime, full attendance every day, and work an average of ten hours a day, basically without your own private life.
If you don't work overtime every day or on weekends, the basic monthly salary is more than 2,000, and the salary at the end of the month is six or seven thousand, so you have to work overtime from eight to eight in the morning.
Life is not an easy thing for most of us.
If it is so easy to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, our fertility rate will not be so low, and we must know that our Chinese nation is recognized as one of the most industrious nations in the world, we are not afraid of hardship, if we can really easily earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, why do we have to do hard work, we are not stupid.
If they can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month or even higher in life, they are either very capable, or they have a prestigious university degree so that they can get some high-level jobs in society, such as doctors, university teachers, lawyers, and finance.
You know, the most important thing we need in China is people, so it is never easy to make money with us.
Don't be blinded by the Internet and be fooled by the "income anxiety" on the Internet, you are actually better than you think.
Don't feel inferior or discouraged because of the content on the Internet, take care of yourself is the hero of life, and if you also take care of your family, you will be the hero of life.
I've always subscribed to a very simple belief :Live your life a little better, more grandiose than most.
