There's no way six digit salaries are going to be sustainable in the near future. This kind of money is possible because of low interest capital going around but when the rates inevitably rise and capital dries up, it's going to be hard for companies to pay someone $350,000 USD /year doing the work someone in Vancouver, BC can do for $100,000 CAD /year.

I recall during the dot com bubble people justified a six digit figure for knowing HTML.
