    There are plenty of us making US FAANG salaries outside the US and not at any major tech company.
Can you share some samples? The only ones I can think of are investment banks, but you need to be in the top 5% to be paid as well as FAANG and live in one of the Big Six global banking cities: New York, London, Tokyo, Singapore, Hongkong, Sydney.

Amsterdam has trading firms
Had recently a message from LinkedIn: some trading company is hiring to Amsterdam office, offering 85k plus annual bonus up to 40%. Peanuts comparing to NYC offerings.
That is exactly my point!
I guess FAANG-level comp is less than 500 people in the whole city.
