Whenever I read these kind of salaries I feel like I’m doing something fundamentally wrong.

30yo, European based with lousy 60k/year. With the rising real estate prices I probably won’t even be able to afford a house in my lifetime. (Except maybe with a working SO - but even then until I’m too old for work)

I’d say if it’s it just about earning more money maybe work overtime for a little salary boost. Hard to beat that $/h.

Leetcode and get a job at a tier 1 tech company.

If you want it enough to put in the time, it is possible.

The absolute state of the tech industry. The bubble WILL burst, and most idiot devs WILL be out of job.

Ya totally all of these "idiot" devs with the patience and drive to grind Leetcode and that now have the skills accumulated from working at a FAANG will be jobless. Lol.

When the bubble bursts, no amount of "grinding" Leetcode will guarantee a job. The number of well-paying jobs will be a fraction of what they are now.
