    Woo hoo, me to! :cool: But I bet he has lower outgoings so gets to keep more overall. I wonder if the president needs to pay for his own food, rent, clothing, etc? :~

          You cannot make anonymous posts in the Lounge, while you can in the Soapbox. This is just a CP "rule", not normal "internet stuff". :) To answer your question, though I don't know how salaries in India would be relevant for you... When I graduated out of college, I started at a salary of 30k/month == 360k/yr. When I left the job to work on my own after three years, I was making 540k/yr. All in Indian Rupees, of course.
          Regards,

            The Lounge is for PG-13, non-programming related discussion. It's basically a hang-out spot for developers looking for a break. You must be logged in to post a message in the Lounge. The Soap Box is an anything-goes forum. If you can think of it, you can post it. Anonymous posts are allowed in there (unless something has changed recently). That way people can post about their salaries. Some people might not want to say how much/little they make out in the open.

                        Touché - a fencing term, I believe. It's used when a point is scored, and I presume it means 'touch' in English.

                          Dictionary.com[^] says: tou·ché ( P ) interj. Used to acknowledge a hit in fencing or a successful criticism or an effective point in argument. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [French, from past participle of toucher, to hit or wound in fencing, from Old French touchier, to touch. See touch.]
