Guys I make significantly more than $70k, I live in a city with significantly less cost-of-living than New York, and I'm a slacker who you all think is incompetent also.Just to ground you.
What were the requirements for the job you currently have?
My parents are starting to get pretty insistent about me giving up this whole "programming" thing and take the bar, so being able to point to a better paying career path would help a lot in keeping them out of my hair.
Maybe you should consider making them aware of how many unemployed/underemployed law school graduates there are out there. I'm not sure they've all passed the bar, but it's a field I'd be careful about. You may get paid less as a programmer, but you'll always get paid.
