I have made a lot more than this probably 4x TOC of this and I would never share it with friends because to anyone not in tech my salary is shocking and troublesome. I have friends who are in fields that rarely top 100K and in the Bay Area it can be a challenge to live on that. It makes them sad! I didn't go into tech to make this much money but of course I am happy I've been able to take care of my family, own a house, educate my kid without debt, etc. The young ones around here all gravitate to tech in some capacity. It's hard to have a decent life with making a good income.
