I live in Malaysia. I'm getting paid USD24k annually right now. If someone wants to offer USD40k, I'd take it right away even if it's the lower end of the US standard rates.

At some point, you're competing with other remote offers though.

Totally, and probably from there it would be easier to find a 60-70k job. That's why I think assuming people from "poor countries" will be necessarily cheaper is a huge misconception
