Hmm, what is the highest paying JS job you have seen/heard of? I am not particularly good and by far the highest quote I've ever gotten was ~100k euro after taxes. Not bad at all but required relocation.
Just how much can a skilled JS dev get paid?

In general, the big cos hire maybe 1 JS dev for every 2 or 3 backend devs. But they're on the same payscale. From what I've heard, it's more challenging to climb the level ladder, but if you come in at a terminal level and aren't particularly interested in that stuff, it's pretty comfortable.
Midwestern state, large health care company - between $150-$200K (this is FTE status with benefits)
You can also be a contractor (hourly, no benefits) and squeeze a bit more out and just jump around from company to company. Senior JS devs are in seriously high demand right now. I get around 5-6 emails a day from recruiters looking for Senior JS devs.
