Maybe yes

Something is better than nothing. Flexibility is the key. Think it is day 1. Helps to keep learning.

According to this site some new grads are making $200k in total compensation in sillycon valley. Would love to be making that.

I would never move to Silicon Valley at this stage in the game for only $250K. With the cost of housing that would be a serious downgrade in our lifestyle.

I'm paid exactly the same as everyone else. No more, no less.
