I don't know about Portugsl or Spain, but $50k would put uou into "wildest dreams" category in a Lot of countries.

And you'd be surprised at how much exceptional talent is out there. Apparently with 8 billion people to choose from the supply pool gets a lot bigger than those who live in very expensive cities.

Luckily wfh means companies are much more likely to hire remote workers now. Well lucky for folks like me anyway...

I'm in France, we have a slightly higher income than Portugal and Spain (less now than in the past I think but still), and even there 50k€ is a very good salary. 80k€ puts you in the top 3% in France (2023, for salaries).
