Let me be clear: from one perspective, I get paid a ridiculous amount of money for what I do. I push buttons and think for a living. I spend a few hours per day doing it, I really enjoy it, and I can do it anywhere in the world from my laptop. It's crazy that someone is willing to pay me $100k / year, and I'm super grateful for that. Really. However, that doesn't mean that $100k / year (or whatever the minimum I'd be excited about) is the market rate. If ten other companies would pay me $300k, then I should go work there, right? There's no speed limit. Just because someone is willing to pay you way more than you ever dreamed doesn't mean you should shun any more than that. Do your best and go to where you're valued the most.
