I got a $350k/year salary offer from a High Frequency Trading company based in Chicago. They use C, C++ and FPGA. As far I know in 2-3 years you can go over 500k. Not many developers get that much in the Valley...

HFT is gambling. There are probably more profitable positions in gambling e.g. in Russia :)

    I guess there are lots of people who get a regular salary from running casinos or producing gambling-machines, too.
