At Glassdoor, Find Out How Much People Really Make...
This is just awfully depressing. I'm Belgian working for a British company, so my wage is about half, and with much higher taxes so my real wage is more like a third.

True. But the point isn't that he's well off; it's that a valley employee pulling down $90k/year isn't particularly wealthy.

Yeah I was surprised it was so low. 150K a year in the valley isn't much.
