You're an individual retail day trader? Come back to us in 10 years and lets see if you are still making money. Or rather lets see if you can beat the S&P 500 for 10 years straight.

So you don't believe price effects the creation and maintenance of bots? When maintaining an army of bots becomes more expensive than the amount of money they are making from it, they will stop doing it.

Your sample size of 1 or a couple does not refute my statement about not all top tech pay the same. I think you are quite the bitter one trying to refute every single one of my comments.

Yes I know the median is making $240k. The median eng is probably doing 250-360k. You do not work at a startup for 5 years straight out of college and then goto FB making 400k a year. A few do, but the median engineer does not.

"Overall, top tech pay about the same." No, they do not. Again, obviously you have never worked at a FANG company otherwise you would probably realize this. It's quite a well known fact in the Valley that FB/Google pay m

So? That's one engineer. I said top 20%. You act like the median engineer is pulling 400k at FB. They aren't.

The median T5 Google eng does not have 200k base. (It's less than that) and lol bonus is not 200k. Bonus is 15% of base. Not sure where you are pulling your numbers from but Facebook is very similar. Most senior devs at big tech are no

RSU's in a company that hasn't gone public are not very liquid... not paper money, but definitely not worth face value. Take that value and cut it in half or 1/4.

Excuse me but the median senior software engineer at Microsoft does not make $400k/yr in TC. Same goes for AMZN. There are only a handful of companies that pay $400k/yr for senior software engineers and MSFT ain't one of them
