you need to get more familiar with how much money these people have
Not just how much money but how easy they have it. You don't stay unemployed when you're in tech, for example - you put up a CV online and recruiters call you pretty much the same day.
They call you pretty much every day while you're employed!
Anybody who has sympathy for people who, as a class:
make well into the six figures starting at age 22, have excellent benefits and extremely lax work policies around vacation time and hours, and have an incredibly high amount of direction over the work they do
