You could probably get a job at Naughty Dog or Valve doing minimum wage. They need janitors too!

Since there are no guarantees, I am counting it as a rejection.


no one at valve has job titles though...

Would reject this at 50 hours a week, but 20 per week isn't bad, plus you can always quit and pick something else if you start to really hate it.

$5 million and I'd take this deal.

Extending this a bit because I couldn't bump this earlier and because it was a holiday anyway.

So... what happens if the concept of a minimum wage job is abolished?

Then you'll have to work at a minimum wage type job. If it is impossible to get a minimum wage job (or type of job), then you can't do something impossible. That's really your only escape.

wait how does this interact with inflation

Your minimum wage is set to whatever the local minimum wage is at the time. So, if minimum wage is $7 right now in your area and changes to $9 in 5 years, then you'll be getting paid $9 in 5 years. That's how inflation is taken into account. Your payout won't adjust itself for inflation, but you can put it somewhere to earn income (from interest, stock dividends, etc.).
