One programmer I know was making $16k per month, and that was salary. People who assume more of the risk tend to make more than that.


That's nearly 200k a year, that's certainly not typical. What was his specialty?


No, it's not typical for programmers as a whole, but it's typical of his specialty, which is quantitative market analysis. He quit to do a Web 2.0 startup for a lot more money.
