Its not an unpopular opinion in my book. The first sentence, especially the "it might be harder if you have a family to feed", is distressing. If an average developer salary is not enough to do that, then, what are the jobs that DO allow you that ?

Don't believe the hype. The average developer salary is enough to feed a family of four, you just won't be able to buy a house in a sought-after suburb on a single salary.
