Correct but with an optimistic projection of working for 5-10 more years, I could stop working forever, unless I want to work for fun / enjoyment (or say no to crappy jobs) and then move to the EU.
If I move to the EU now and take a hit in income, that will become impossible.
- tonfa 6y agoGermany median salary is 42k EUR (and I guess one of the highest in the eurozone, Portugal seem to be 25k USD), depending on your lifestyle, I think many people could actually retire with 1M...
- vecinu 6y agoOnce you extrapolate that to software engineers, levels.fyi says you can expect 80k EUR/yr in Germany [1] which I think is after-tax. If that is true, it's more than I thought it would be and I think if you found a good job you enjoyed, making 80k EUR/yr on top of having $1M saved could give you a secure financial future.
