> in Bangalore that are getting paid peanuts because they can be exploited

The thing about Cost of Living is that poor schmuck in Banagalore may well be living like a king off those wages compared to his other options.

I made a pittance in west coast tech terms, but here in Iowa that means I own my house outright, I have a wife that doesn't need to work, and I have three kids.

From what I read on here that is a pipe dream for many of the same west coast tech people.

I'll take Iowa.
