Sounds like USA centric POV?

It was not until several years ago that software developers in Europe finally reached the mythical 100K per year compensation range, that's been common in USA for more than a decade before that.

And that's in rather expensive Western Europe (e.g. €1500+ per month for one kid/toddler daycare), and not "cheaper" Southern/Eastern Europe.

Every POV is USA centric. This is a USA web zone. Nowhere else matters.

> Nowhere else matters. Until the California people want to move somewhere liveable with good public transport, low crime, low poverty/homelessness and sensible social safety for their children.

Then - and only then - does Europe miraculously become interesting. Who knew?
