          I have managed to upskill to avoid cheap competition, but the price was moving to another country and learning a new language (there is cheap labour in the new country - Switzerland, but they don't bother learning the language)

          However I don't think my approach is realistic for everyone, obviously not everyone can be above average, and also maybe people would like to support their family in their local community, making their area, country a better place. This is not going to be possible if everyone spends their life obsessing over being in the top couple of percent of achievers.
