Ok, so you've pointed out the issues with the various online Cost Of Living Comparison Calculators I used to derive those numbers (I used two different ones and took the average). That's all well and good and I certainly can't defend any of the numbers since I was just putting them up as an example and I have no clue how accurate they are. I'm glad you pointed out the discrepancies, though. Keep in mind these aren't my figures. I wouldn't vouch for anything found on the internet, I was just passing it along as a rough estimate.
The bottom line is it's a $78K USD/year position in one of the most expensive cities in the world. It's only less expensive than a few cities in Asia and is far more expensive than any city in the USA. Can we all agree on that and not bother with which city should be ranked 34? ;) The question at hand is whether you think $78,000 USD per year is a competitive salary for London. Given the current market demand for and the scarcity of truly Senior level Flash developers, I think it's a bit low, though I might negotiate for a little more for the opportunity to live in London for awhile if I had never been there. ;) _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
