He's saying 409A, which means a US company, and saying he has an offer for $120k. So, even if he's in a country where $60k is okay-ish, it's low.

You're right. The startup is a US company. The parent is also correct, I'm working remotely from another country, where $60k is considered decent.

If you are in another country, 120k should be life changing then.
