That's what I was thinking. I moved to Europe and my salary was halved. I'm making 70K euros. After three years of scratching this "living in Europe" itch, I'm ready to move back to the U.S. An entry level developer should be making no less than 90K in the land of the free.

€70k as a developer? That's a middled aged EM salary here in Sweden

Unfortunately I have to ask, what's the meaning of EM?
