That's the best possible outcome. We're super lucky in this industry because we have the best paying remote work opportunities out there. Before you couldn't get an SF job in a LCOL area, and even with a COL adjustment, you are still making closer to an SF salary than a rural Penn salary.

Exactly. I got extremely lucky on top of actively trying to game the system.
