> Make $300K A year

You make it sound easy! How do I do that outside of not just SF, but the US?

Move to Seattle?
ah yes, Seattle, the famous city in Taiwan
I misread and thought he meant outside of SF :)

Work for one of the big tech cos outside of US is probably your best bet.

What companies are those? Meaning, employing software engineers and paying 300K per year for roles that are not executive-level.
I'm currently at Indeed Japan and I'm pretty sure I can make ~300k as an IC in 1 promo or >>300k as an IC in 2 promos. Of course, at the corresponding level at Facebook in Menlo Park, I'd make 200k+ more...
