It's only 240k a year, which is pretty standard SV wages.

God, I just _love_ how out of touch the American tech industry is from the rest of the world.

Me too, pays the bills =)

My point is, if 20k/month motivates you, Silicon Valley has hundreds of thousands of people in that category. And by many perspectives, they are underpaid. Really, I'm just saddened by how out of touch the rest of the world is on the subject.

Yes, I'm aware that $20k/month salary is readily achievable SV. But $20k/month to be your own boss is a bit harder to come by.

The difference being you’re a slave to a corporation, and this way you’re not.

I know people frame it as 'be your own boss' but really it's just going from one boss to hundreds.
