If it makes you feel any better, the rationalization I apply to those Google/FB salaries (total comp.) is that I'm fairly confident that I will never be able to work at either of those companies. And I am at peace with that since working in this technology industry bubble, allows me to work with my mind and with talented people with diverse interests and appreciate how fortunate I am to have the ability to have what I do have - not what I don't have.
