HN is such a bubble sometimes. Hearing the problems of 250k/yr+ programmers is so completely strange.
I know there are a lot of us programmers and tech workers working in non profits, government, education, or in small but sustainable businesses.
I'm resigned to making well under what HN would consider a junior level salary, but in exchange I get to work at a place with a mission I can believe in, and I still have a comfortable lifestyle.
Maybe we're doing it wrong? I could probably double my salary at some VC funded company, after all. But in threads like this I do wonder if mo money means mo problems.
