I didnt mean to sound like I was bragging, sorry if it came across like that. I am considering changing industries and want to know what to expect. I was asking very broadly intentionally

I know what most my colleagues make. So when I look on those sites it always seems low. If I wanted to brag I wouldn't use a throwaway. My father did finance his whole life, I've been brought up on it. I'm curious what people make outside my box.

Not sure this is the place. But always looking for talented python devs.

Ask HN: I want to get out of finance but salaries scare me

I've been doing software development as a profession for about 8 years. I've done it for fun for over 15. I've worked mainly in finance, lately it's been predominantly in python. I'm very passionate about programming, but finance not so much. I'm currently making 200k a year. This isn't even a lot for finance, I have friends making double/triple+. I really want to move to a mainly tech company...
