There is something off with that number. I am not from France (but from a neighboring country), but with 3.400 euros per month you are not among the best paid p

  I suppose she's talking about net salary. Here is a histogram for France: https://fr.statista.com/infographie/25111/distribution-des-salaires-mensuels-nets-en-equivalent-temps-plein-en-france/#:~:text=On%20constate%20qu'environ%209,et%202%20000%20€%20nets. https://fr.statista.com/infographie/25111/distribution-des-s... According to that, she's definitely in the top 20%. Of course "among the best paid people" is ambiguous depending on how much "top" you consider, but I think being in the top 20% it makes sense to say that. PS: and I suppose (although it's hard to find data) that if we look at people in her age bracket, she will be in a higher percentile.

  Those 3400 net monthly are likely around 60K annually gross.

  Not the best paid, but unless you want to live within Paris, it becomes a confortable revenue. In France, you are considered rich when your net revenue is twice the median. That is to say, if you get more than ~4000 € of _net_ monthly salary (around 61k gross/year), you are rich. This was very easy to reach in the IT industry, especially in the Paris area, after 15 years at most. The 1% richest (based on salary) start from 7500 € net/month (115k gross/year).
