On: Ask HN: Propaganda for creative salary manipulatio...

[polynomial]

Starting salary for hackers? My ex made starte in that range with just her modest fluency with html. In fact, the more I think about it, the more I think that number is really low for NYC, in my personal exp.

Oh crap - stop posting those salaries :P

I'm in the 3rd world right now making 12000 U$D a year - and taxed like hell for being in the upper range.

I'll most probably emigrate within the next year, but I know it won't be a bed of roses...
