    Money, most of them come really poor backgrounds. Imagine living in the ghetto and getting offered well over $100,000 per year in the US.

    The actual numbers I think soldiers start at 3k per month. Which is a shitton of money for somebody in rural Russia/Moldova/Ukraine. ( yes ukranians have been known to be recruited into Wagner before the war)
