Yep - even our prime minister/president doesn't make that much a month, more like half that. I used to know a Polish guy making million Polish zloty/year(so about $300k) but he was the head of the Polish division of a major German insurance company.

Most of my Polish friends working in Poland as programmers(ranging from C++ to Web development) make about ~$2500-3500/month, and that's considered extremely good for where they live(Krakow and Warsaw).

Yep that's true. I don't count on making this kind of money locally (I don't even go through Polish job ads any more, as I can make more remotely or by taking up a contract in Western Europe), I just randomly found this opportunity.

But still, you can work remotely for a US company and make that kind of money. That's pretty realistic and was probably the source of the fortune cookie wisdom.

How does one do that, except by working for infamous Crossover company?
