      I agree with the other two, but 300k is an exceptional pay package unless you're talking about VP level positions or very specific company

      Jeff, you're not right. Tens of thousands of people at AppAmaGooBookSoft have this pay package. Most turn tickets into code as main job.

      Are you including benefits and profit sharing and 401k and other in that 300k? I barely made half that in my entire career even at Stack.

      IMO the strange thing is that 300k for a programmer is less exceptional than 300k for a lawyer, but many programmers find 300k unbelievable

      whereas lawyers making $50k/yr don't have a hard time believing that lawyers at white shoe firms can make > $300k/yr

      I would if I thought that I could convince people, but this seems like one of the hardest tech topics to convince people on!

          I think you can get convincing data for the histogram for law, but for tech it would be a Fermi-style estimate
