You passing this idea you found on the internet off as your own? I saw a meme about this earlier this week, too.

I haven't seen anything about any of this before. I watched it with my son a few days ago and have been thinking about it. If I had seen something else I would've mentioned it.

We don’t know if Nedry earns a million dollars or more do we? Could be more of a spending problem. The bitterness of perceived value is what enabled the betrayal. I know lots of people who think they aren’t paid what they are worth but in reality are way overpaid.

I doubt very seriously he's earning anywhere near that much considering his reaction to getting paid by Dodgson in one of the opening scenes. Dodgson gives him a briefcase with $750k in it and offers $50k for each embryo he smuggles off the island, for a total of $1.5 million. And Nedry is beside himself with glee. If he was making a million or more a year he likely doesn't throw his career away for $1.5 million.
