What's hard about it? Assuming the average here on HN is making $150k USD at a cushy programming job, let's say 100k after taxes. You're telling me you can't live off $4100~ a month? I live off $2500 a month easily (1500 rent, 500 food, 500 fun, debt free - no car - no other expenses) and the rest goes in the bank.
- DatBear 11y agoYea I make like $50k pre-tax - where do I get this $150k salary? If I spent as much as you there would be nothing left.
- camdenre 11y agoYea, some of these people seem pretty out of touch with reality outside of the Bay Area.

- toomuchtodo 11y agoTypical senior sysadmin/Linux admin pay is $100k-$130k in major metros. Disclaimer: I'm a sysadmin/devops/infrastructure guy.
- compostor42 11y agoIsn't 150k a high salary for even the Bay Area?
- Decade 11y agoYes, Glassdoor says the average for a software developer in San Francisco is $94,000, senior software developer $116,000.
