    Product Owner is like a project manager.

    I’d put her in the 100-200k range.

    Working for Apple, potentially near Apple HQ.

    You could live paycheck to paycheck on that. No shit.

      Or you could live within your means in a low cost of living area. I know a software PM in rural Appalachia.

      edit: I guess the caveat is that I dont know Apple’s remote-work stance. It is certainly feasible at other aoftware companies

        I’m saying I could live comfortably in most places with my salary BUT having a family does dictate that some of my decisions place me grasping above my income bracket.

        I’m “poor” in my area on 6figures because I chose to be close to good schools.

        I chose to be taxed more for better stuffs.
