Hence the title : What is your annual salary in $US?

Is because I'm still a student. Despite my urge to vote in the poll every week, I must pass this one. Wish there had been an option 'Not applicable'

Well you could vote on the "less than $20,000 a year" and make everyone else feel better that their percentile ranking is going up

That's why I had the "less than 20,000" option. My thinking on this one was for students wondering about how lucrative software development is. They're not so much interested in the difference between no income and less than 20K; but rather, the chances of eventually getting a 6-figure salary.

Hello,

I figured that only people who are earning an annual salary should vote. Since I'm not earning anything at the moment, I cannot vote that I earn less than 20K. Anyway, one vote doesn't matter much anyway.

It is indeed nice to see how the many people are where on the salary scale. It's worth noting that once chances to earn a 6 figure salary drops significantly when you earn almost a 6 figure salary. (from 11.2% to 5.74%) It's also nice to see that you chances increase significantly of earning more than 200K when you almost earn 200K. (from 0.68% to 1.5%) Factoring out the people who just try to mess up the polls by voting wrong numbers, will probably invalidate this number.

I wish to have the opportunity at least to try to work abroad for some time. .

So obviously by the name you are using and by lack of intelligence that you are displaying, you are 13 years old BOB and you have a IQ of 12, some day when you grow up you will realize that there is more to life, then just being a dumb ass and don’t mind this virus that I’m sending you, it won’t hurt for long…;P

Over 200,000 a year : 1
That's 16K USD/month minimum - 2 months and you can buy a decent car with downpayment (even accounting for tax cuts).

Well I am quite sure that anyone in the 200k category is an owner or part owner of a company that is now doing quite well. Basically its the risk vs reward equation; some people are willing (or have the opportunity) to work an extreme number of hours for very little money in order to attempt to build a business, hoping that years down the road they will make greater than 200k per year. Their chance of actually making it to above industry average wages? Well from what info I can find its less than 15%. Most people who attempt end up just a single person consultant (which is not necessarily bad either).
