27k in London ? Wtf were you thinking breh :dwillhuh:

I hope they included free housing :patrice:


salaries in europe are shyt compared to the US the only places in europe with good salaries are actually london and Zurich. grad/junior salaries are 20-35k in london, i had to stop viewing CS Career Questions as it was giving me unrealistic salary expectation. good thing in london is at least that salaries scale pretty quickly i could double my salary a year from now when i switch jobs

Just curious. On Reddit there is a whole thread/section where users loan others money who are in need. If they don't payback the lender just puts in a refund through PayPal goods and services and gets their money back. I know everyone on this site isn't perfect or balling, so why not try the same?

@Pyrexcup damn man....European salaries are really poor. Is that your after tax salary? I do know Europe taxes at a far higher rate than the US so after taxes that is a slight more understandable, but even still.

Because the focus here is becoming financially autonomous or climbing up the corporate ladder.

So it's after hours and I'm at the office shooting out some emails concerning a next job. I got the 2 screen set up. Left screen my email, the right screen LinkedIn profile pages on various tabs. Mind you, my manager already went home. It's just me and my dude on the Corp Dev team.

Anyway, I'm typing an email and the VP of our team (my boss' boss) is leaving to go home (I wave goodbye) when she starts coming to my desk from behind me, asking what I'm working on. I have like 6 LinkedIn tabs on my right screen, but luckily my personal finance excel sheet was the "active" tab open.

I don't even look at her. Straight up tell her "working on some personal emails" (I was typing one out at them moment). I didn't want to close the browser cause then it looks sneaky, but I damn sure wasn't gonna turn around.

Once she left my boy on Corp Dev was laughing his ass off.

I'm just gonna pretend like nothing happened tomorrow :yeshrug:

Working on my first real estate commission (an apt). I had a nice little break as the beau went on vacay so I had time to laser focus on my business/work but he’s back now and all mine :noah:

I might as well live in the middle of the desert.:russ:

I'd rather keep my sanity and earn less as opposed to living in the middle of nowhere.:deadmanny:

I'll take my chances.:pachaha::mjcry::mjgrin:


I'm actually in the midst of learning C++:whoo:

No salary is 27k pounds before tax. Even fb google amazon apple netflix pays lower here in Europe it is what it is
