throwaway8709··on Babel is used by millions, so why are we running out of money?
Actually, the average salary for people with computer science degree and 5+ years experience is 9-12k USD according to IDA (Engineering union in Denmark).

That's just the average!

Are you kidding me?

FANG has lots of offices in Europe.. I work at one of those at around 20-35k USD / month, depending on stonk prices :)

Making 11k USD is not uncommon for contractors in northern Europe, Switzerland or Germany.

Sure, you can find many who are paid less. But talent is expensive.
