Fair.

Let's be realistic, or even conservative.

90th percentile? (£58k)

I think any contract developer will be on the 95%+ percentile. When I started contracting in my mid-20s I was in the UKs 1% for a 40 hour gig done from my bedroom desk. It’s pretty mental.
Yeah my points above all stand, despite people silently disagreeing.

No issue with those salaries. With contract work you're providing a much need service.

Just don't pretend those salaries are what they are.
