What about a living hoax? A small thread on the story of the Tasaday, the fake "stone age" people
Today we're thinking about archaeological forgeries, fakes and hoaxes. Some do it for the money, to prove their theory correct or to boost their reputation, for others it seems compulsive.
Let's look at some of the most infamous forgers of the last few hundred years:

I've noticed that Indians have a borderline sadistic delight in exploiting their subaltern, and will see anyone in a lower hierarchical position as fair game to be humiliated, berated, and even physically abused.
Raising a child in the US seems hellish compared to India.
US—Wake up early, cook, drive kid to work, both parents work, do groceries, chores, cleaning. Lonely.
India—Maid cleans, driver drops you, groceries in 15mins, cook cooks, parents babysit. Community.

The lowest level of the rung had 57 men receiving the equivalent to 120 R$ per week, or a little more than 70 USD at the time per week. The minimum wage in 2010 was 510 R$. This means that the your entry-level drug dealer was earning in parity with minimum wage.

A key reason we can read ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs (that Egyptians themselves hadn't been able to read for centuries) was because some Europeans found this in a wall more than 200 years ago in the Nile Delta and it made its way into the British Museum. You're welcome.

Today, it is accepted that the Tasaday are a legitimate tribal people with their own customs, but few take seriously their claim of "1000 years of isolation." The hoax serves as a testimony to the credulity of the media and the survival of the myth of the good savage.

The highest earners would be the slum chiefs, which made between 1.5k R$ to 500 R$ per day on duty. Good money - attracting however the risk of getting killed, and of which there were only 2 among 105 employees for the narcos.

So your average drug dealer could aspire for a monthly wage of 1.6 R$ (800 USD then) and have against him not only the risk of being killed, but of staying in jail for at least 5 years if caught. Most wouldn't even make this monthly.
