Hmm betting your future on a platform that has unknown chance of success for 1/7 of 1 eng. comp package/year is a strange risk to take.

Where are you getting your numbers from? $3k * 12 months * 7 would be $252k/yr. Glassdoor reports average software engineer salaries in SF at $125k/yr.

Still, you're right that $3k is on the low side for SF, if you're treating it as your sole income to live off.

add medical insurance, add stock options etc. even if it is 1/4 it still a very strange risk to take on.
