Software devs (in the US at least) make insane amounts of money.

"CEO golden parachute" insane? Or just "I can't believe it's past minimum wage!" "insane"?

Neither? They're in the part of the population that don't live paycheck to paycheck and actually has a chance of retiring. The median software engineer salary is $120k in the US. The median household income is $74k. I think American software engineers are doing fine.
