Yes.

What skills do you lack to find a well paying job?

I have skills, but where I live, skills are only a small part of getting a
job. *You have to be of the right ethnicity, have the right contacts, be the
right age, be a graduate of the right schools (just having a degree may not be
sufficient, if it's not from the right place), and so on. *Skills come last.

For some jobs, you can also be too skilled. *Many companies want to hire
someone who has the requisite skills but no others, because it's perceived as
being cheaper. *In this case, it's easy to be overqualified.

Why am I not surprised at your response. I knew when I posted this
that if you did respond with reasons, they would all be someone else's
fault. Not only can you never admit you are wrong you just cannot
admit to any shortcomings. If where you live is the main issue
( unlikely) surely there is a solution to that. Who chose to live in
Paris? Are you imprsioned there?
