[–] kull 7y ago ↗ Answers to this question may give people wrong impression if you do not include a cost of living in the bay area. Salaries are very much connected to the local economy and a cost of living. [–] symbolepro 7y ago ↗ Thats why asked - How much you earn and how much you save.Cost of Living = Earning - tax - savingIsnt it obvious?
