Agreed, but worth noting that a lot of places that pay more than average also suck your soul away in the bargain. That's of course not true of all places, but banks, for example, tend to be a whole lot less fun to work at than Google. The "is it a fun job" factor should not be underestimated (unless you really just care about money, which is the case for some people - and I'm not saying this as a negative).

But I've managed to keep successful career in Silicon Valley/SF with startups and SME-sized internet companies doing interesting things. My point is there is a a lot of middle ground between the insular world of Google with it's average pay and the suckage of banks.
