Comment on Ask HN: What is your ideal income?

Comments

Absolute base would be about $70k to pay for living expenses for myself and my family. To be comfortable, I'd like to make about $90k. A realistic, "reach" amount would be $140k based on freelancing 20 hours a week at $60 an hour as well as my day job.

what state do you live in? Taxes vary, and can shift the salary by 15-20%.
