Also yeah, I do mean a luxury lifestyle. As in, almost all the perks you’d expect from a holiday package as part of a daily lifestyle.
If you mean those tiny, badly built hotel apartments/suites, then I have a different idea of luxury life.
I used to be happy with a humble lifestyle when I was younger as well, but now with small kids, I want to provide them better living conditions.
Oh sweet summer child…
Do you have some actual argument instead of vague condescending remarks?
I’m a high tech worker myself. Maybe we’re in different markets (I’m in cybersecurity) but it sounds like you’re being swindled.
In a way, I do feel swindled since my direct US teammates on the same level earn about the double of what I do, with lower taxes and lower cost of living. But then I’m actually quite happy with my 200K EUR total compensation if I don’t compare.
The problem is that my compensation is rather a big exception. Most seniors I know earn something between 60-80K, with 100K being pretty rare (outside my company).
Only €200k salary? Eesh! I see what you mean! Absolutely unable to save with that kind of money, especially after yatch maintenance and a ticket on Bezos’s rocket!
I was in that position until last year, when I got a bump to €500k. Hang in there. It gets better!
I already said I’m pretty happy with my personal salary and conditions. But my salary is far from typical and most devs here get less than half of that.
If you really earn 500K then your “luxury life” makes more sense, but is even farther from a typical Spanish dev.
High costs? The highest cost place here is Barcelona and that still looks like a bargain compared to your average tech hub in America.
