It’s actually about 74 cents per hour assuming 9 hour work days and a 300 day year. Median Indian Income is about $1,977.29 as of March, 2018. In terms of Indian Rupees, that’s 69.33 Rupees per dollar, so that would be 137,085.52 Rupees a year. Edit: an Indian would need to work 323.09 days a year on 68 cents an hour, 9 hours a day to get that money.

This isn’t even a joke. I worked at a small company as an engineer and the CEO was a patent attorney. We had all the skill sets to write our own patents. We still sent our patent application writing to India and just reviewed it because it was more cost effective. You could have an entire team working on it for a month for same cost as one day of work here.

@@theyoshi202 While it may not be criminal in most cases, when you work at most jobs you have what's called "at-will employment". It means that you and the company entered a contract that the company can terminate at any point for any (legal) reason. When you buy something at a store, that is a form of contract. The Facebook TOS reads like a contract as well. A contract includes: an offer, consideration, and acceptance. Consideration is the tricky one. It is something of value that each side expects to give up as their end of the contract. So, a company that hires you can reasonably expect that you will not share proprietary information, such as trade secrets, interal processes, and internal financial information. When you subcontract your own job, you are breaching this part of the contract. Not only can you be fired, it may bring litigation on your ass- especially if your work involves handling a client's sensitive information. Secretly subcontracting your own duties can also be fraudulent (criminal) for a number of reasons, especially the tax implications (including for your personal taxes, the organizations FICA tax liability, Obamacare, etc.) It's obviously a bad idea, but it can be reeeeally bad. Basically, you can be fired on the spot, potentially sued, and possibly even be prosecuted for fraud depending on what you did. There is civil law and criminal law. Breach of contract is civil. Fraud is criminal.

Years ago I laughed this off as a joke, but it wasn't until I became an operations manager that I realized it's not that unrealistic. I found a firm in India that was willing to do my systems maintenance and accounting work because the average income for their division is a fraction of my team's salary. To ensure the work is not just half-assed junk, I found an actuarial and auditing firm in China that would double-check their processes and numbers and reformat it for marketing, again because they were getting paid a fraction of what my team makes. I ended up doing about 3-4 hours of work every week to triple check their final submission and integrate it into my systems and was paid (and raised) at a normal growth rate. I have since started my own company that basically partners with overseas businesses looking for work at higher pay and market them to clients in this country looking to outsource. The system does the work for me once the algorithm and backup liaisons match companies together. I essentially make 6-7 figures (depending on total partnerships and clients) doing practically nothing. Strayed a bit from the concept of this video but still lol

You graduate with a reasonable grade (dont be greedy) It will cost you a few thousand USD a year. Quite cheap.

I once watched a video of this American working in an office, he was secretly out sourcing his tasks to a guy in China. He would pay the Chinese guy with his only money. He was eventually caught and fired but he got paid for years doing this. I wish I could find the article.

I know it's satire but when I was doing my masters degree in the 🇺🇸 States, I actually did outsource some of my research work to some girl in 🇰🇭 Cambodia for a price of $3.50 per page. It actually helped pay for her own studies as she had other clients from the 🇺🇸 U.S, 🇦🇺 Australia and 🇨🇳 China, and was in university herself.
@sanserof72 жыл бұрын
So you couldn't pay her a little more than 3.50 a page? Thats just unethical, you could have easily given more.
