Yeah, tech jobs easily pay $200k-600k. A bad, low level tech job will still probably pay $120k.
Some people are making $1M+, especially couples where both have tech jobs. This is why many people choose to live in California despite the cost of living. That said, if you aren’t in tech, it can be a struggle and that’s where you get people trying to cling to rent-controlled apartments and split rent 6-ways. This polycule is probably in part driven by housing costs and as most of them are young, they haven’t yet come to feel that living with 6 other people fucking sucks.
