Currently making 120K + some stock options. Small startup in the valley. Fresh out of Masters. Worked for a year (as a researcher in a lab) after undergrad.

Do you think a master's degree was worth it, in terms of extra salary as well as in terms of general life experience?

For me, yes. I had an extremely shitty undergrad in EE. I wanted to do C.S. (to put it bluntly, I didn't know shit about programming) and Math and basically crammed in as much of a B.S. in Math/C.S. in those 2.5 years of Masters. Moving from being unemployable to employable is a definitely boost.
