On: Anthropic IPO filing: $1.7B quarterly payroll, about $107K per employee monthly

$9K/mo translates to a little over a hundred grand annually. That's not that much in our industry.

[BugsJustFindMe → jorisw]

That's $9k/mo free spending _after_ taxes, _after_ childcare, and _after_ exorbitantly luxurious housing.

[bluefirebrand → BugsJustFindMe]

Yeah, this is what I mean

Sure, 9k pre-tax and pre-childcare and pre-housing isn't that unusual in our industry

But takehome after that is a really incredible salary.

Especially given how ridiculous that housing is

[wtch98 → jorisw]

$9k a month after tax is about $150k before tax.

The median individual salary in California is about $50-60k

$480k on its own (ignoring stock) is a ridiculous level, it's $285k after tax.

Yet someone with $1b in investments "earning" 10% makes $270k every day.

Someone with a "mere" $10m makes that $480k gross every 6 months.
