'I'll never make enough money just working on my full-time job (in tech)'
As a programmer? If you're not making six figures now, you will in 2-3 years. How much money do you need?
- ogd 13y agoIf you want an upper class lifestyle, say modest 3/2 1200 sq foot house in the peninsula, and want to support a wife that stays home with your kids, you'll likely never make enough as just a programmer. You need minimum 250k+ salary to support that lifestyle. Sure some programmers make that much, but most don't
- danaw 13y agoNot everyone lives in a major metropolitan area where programmers are thrown money like there's no tomorrow.
- alexdowad 13y agoYou don't need to live in a metropolitan area. If you're good, you can make 6 figures freelancing on oDesk (et al), and without working crazy hours.
- danaw 13y agoWhat fantasy world do you live in? You're saying its easy to make six figures on a freelancing site where most everyone is looking for the cheapest developer? Seriously?
