One thing to keep in mind as well is that the disposable income after cost of living (and the quality of life) may actually be lower on 100k in some parts of the US than on 60k in Berlin. I'd certainly much rather live in Berlin on 60k than in SF on 100k.
- brianwawok 6y agoSure, but a "Senior" developer can earn 150k in Chicago (and that is without going into finance, double it if you go that route). Not sure how exactly to compare cost of living, but I suspect Chicago is "cheaper" than Berlin in most metrics.
- xienze 6y agoSure but you don’t have to live in SF to make 100K in software. 100K+ is not at all uncommon for a developer with 10 years experience in a low cost of living area.
