I’m now considered probably in the top percentile of earners for my country. But I do remember struggling to make ends meet on my 16k a year first tech job out of university. I find it hard sometimes to relate to tech workers in these forums sometimes. And yes I’m in the west.

While many western tech salaries are high, the salary in discussion is a result of nepotism, not merit.
