How much money can I make as a programmer?
A lot, well, depends.
So let’s do this, some people are gonna watch this and get excited. Some are gonna be pissed. Some will say this guy’s full of shit. To the rest of you I say, what up?
Look. Facts and facts. I don’t make them. I’m just telling you what’s happening. I’m gonna give you some numbers yo. By the all the numbers I’m giving here are US market only.
The short answer is entry level developers college degree not required, but with some kind of training, maybe with ColorCode, can start from 40, 50, sometimes 60k. Experienced programmers can go up to 140, 150, 160.
Career advancement after is up to you. We live in a capitalistic economy where you can essentially go up as far as you want. People have done it. But those numbers depend on A LOOOOT of things. So let me explain.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A government agency. The average salary of all workers in the US in 2015 (I know it’s not from this year but it’s the last one they had ok?)... anyway, average of all workers’ income was $36,300. This is for all jobs in the US. You know what it was for Computer Programmers? $79,530. That’s more than double. This is big.
www.bls.gov/oo...
Job outlook was 17% faster than the average in the US, which means employment is growing fast and there’s gonna be a lotta jobs out there. Even more than today.
Fine, those are just numbers and that’s just an average and I don’t care. Or they’re not from this year. Or bla bla bla. Here’s the bottom line.
What I’m talking about here is the result of basic economics. Supply and demand. If you have something rare that a lot of people want, the value of that thing is gonna go up. Like gold, or diamonds or whatever. Because more people want it, than the number of that thing available. Why do you get minimum wage if you work at Starbucks? Because almost any adult has the skills necessary to make a cup of coffee. Except me apparently. Those skills are not rare or unique.
What you get with software development during our time is you get a very unique skill that very few people have but you also get massive demand, meaning we need a lot of people who can code.
And that’s why you can make more money as a programmer.
You know I’ve talked a lot about the growth of software and how it’s become a universally acceptable tool to help us do our day to day stuff, from work to entertainment to dating and so on. It’s everywhere. So the demand keeps going up. Which means the demand for engineers goes up and up. Which means those jobs are gonna pay more and pay. It won’t be forever. But it is true for now.
Salary average for Junior developer in the US is $59,296 according to glassdoor.
www.glassdoor....
I don’t think that’s 100% accurate based on what I’ve seen. But it’s not far from the truth.
Unless something crazy unpredictable happens, I can tell you in big cities in the US, if you are really good at something specific, whether it’s JavaScript, mobile development, or even if you JUST wanna do styling with CSS,
don’t look at me like that CSS architects, we cherish you, how’s IE10 doing? Hehe I like CSS
with only a few years of experience you can make 6 figures, meaning over a 100k. But remember I said ‘really good at something specific’.
Oh yeah Sina, of course, if you’re good at anything you can make money. True. But the difference is in how long it takes to get there. Take medical for example. To really specialize and become a super badass doctor you need to invest about a decade of your life, more or less + a pretty sizable amount of college money, debt, and lack of sleep from what I hear. Tremendous respect to my doctor friends, you guys are at a different level. But the reality is you can easily get a job in software development in a matter of months if you work hard and know your shit.
Bottom line: If you do your homework and enjoy it, in only a few months you can make enough to support yourself and more. If you continue to grow and learn the latest technologies, and you can deliver quality code and you’re a cool person to work with, you will make more than you need within a few short years. All that, while you got your headphones on and listen to your music. Very few jobs allow us to do that and make this much. From there you can only go up. Not too many glass ceilings in technology, and in the world of programming that might even apply to women. And that’s a very good thing.
From NY with love. Peace.

This was great, been searching for "medical coding practice worksheets" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Penailey TelepathicPrincipality - (do a google search ) ? It is a good exclusive guide for discovering how to passing the AAPC exam for Certified Professional Coder minus the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my buddy got great success with it.
Iron man??
Starts with 40k to 60k ? That's pretty good actually i thin i'll go for it !
Definitely
A year?
@@Stefan-om3ht ya
only 380 subs?! That was one of the best, most informative videos that I have seen. Also had an amazing ending that I will remember for a long time. That was really touching and deep.
Soren Rood thank you for that awesome comment. The channel is fairly new so I’m happy to even have the 380 :) but it’s growing fast so thanks for your support 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Learn salary negotiation tactics. It’s really important to your career.
Starting wages for a junior engineer in Silicon Valley are about 100k. I’ve seen offers for senior engineers at 80k. That’s garbage and they’re going to have to settle for some over seas developer.
Starting salary with no degree 100k. Some bootcamps (not college) average about 115k per student very famously Airbnb once paid a brand new engineer 260k. It’s a great story. Look it up.
With a year of experience you should be close to 120k.
With more the sky is the limit. At some companies experienced engineers are getting well over 300k.
There is a trick to these salaries though.
What are the stock options? They’re going to offer you stock. Most companies (the VAST majority) have stock that is worth nothing and never will be. At the few companies where it is worth a lot the value of stocks will make your effective salary jump!
They know this, so you have to stay at a company for a number of years to actually get the option to buy the stocks at a given rate. It’s a gamble at most companies. If you’re at a place like Airbnb or google or meta that stock is only going up. So, it’s a solid option. It’s more complex.
There is usually retirement matching. This is free money and can be another 5k bump.
You can negotiate for more money for your commute or your home office. Lots of extra little things. Often these can come from different pools of money that company has. So, they may be unable to offer you more than 130k because of a project budget. But, giving you a 10k signing bonus may be fine because that comes out of a different budget.
Often to get your worth you end up having to jump from company to company. You can get hired at 100k then do well and get that max percentage 5k bump. Great. Then they hire a new engineer with one year of experience (same as you now) and pay them 120k. Now you’re down 15k per year. This process keep going. Second year now you’re at about 111k. Hooray! But they hire a new engineer with 2 years of experience in at 135k (or whatever).
This is why the average tech worker stays for 1-3 years.
Per year my salary growth was 100k to 135k to 170k. This is while living in Silicon Valley. Salary is adjusted down for areas where it’s less expensive to live (which can actually put more money in your pocket each year, don’t be blinded by a big number).
Salary isn’t everything. A good work culture and a great team mean a lot more than just getting a big paycheck. You want to feel appreciated on payday. You also want to be excited to turn on your machine and get to work every single day! 👍
Very informative, thanks.
Heh! I'm 12 and I'm starting the programming career in Command Propth, now C# and I want to be a programmer in Los Angeles!
( Sorry for a bad English - I live in Europe-Czech Republic )
Filip, you are doing awesome! Keep learning and one day soon you will be writing C# in Los Angeles :)
Thanks :)
Do you know any good app for starters
I am also 12 years old and I am working in c++ and python

I'm 17 and want to learn to code before I graduate this year to have an upper hand where do I go???
Go to colorcode.io hehe! Jokes aside, it depends what you want to do and what kind of programming you enjoy. Have you done much coding yet?
GOOGLE!
Jokes aside freecodecamp.org should be a good idea.

Dude !!!! Please do!!!!!! I wish I did when I was that age, I would be banking by now. If you're serious about it dm me on instagram @jon_norton_
Starting is the hardest part, different languages work better to fulfill different purposes
'money is a poor indicator of success'. interesting....
:) Thanks for checking out the video.
If I couldn't use my headphones while coding, I'd lose my mind. Not cuz I love music, but I cannot focus in my "open office"
Haha I hear you James. I'm the same.
Such a nice video. But 286 subscribers only. How? I bet if u keep making videos like this u will have lot more subscribers within a short period of time. Subscribed :)

" do your homework, know your stuff and enjoy it and you can make a lot of money "
Good stuff
You’ve made me a lot more confident in becoming a programmer. I acknowledge that I’m a great programmer, but I just worry that I won’t be able to complete a task for some reason. I’m only 17 and currently a junior in high school.
That's fantastic. You'll be alright man. It's not rocket science. Just keep working hard and you'll be great. Hit me up if you need help.
ColorCode I don’t know if you’ve heard of Roblox, but it’s basically a gaming platform that I’ve been using and playing on for the past 8 years. I got into game development and I’ve found myself getting better and better at programming. It uses the programming language Lua. The platform has its own wiki, which tells me how to do a specific task, like removing a player from the game.
I wanted to know... what are the most commonly used programming languages in video game development? I want to be an employee at a game development company and program. I want to ensure that I can take care of myself.
And I also want to know where to start with learning those languages? Would it be a textbook, RUclips videos or wiki articles?
Thanks.
@@gibbonbasher8171 I'm not a gamer or a game developer but I can talk to you as a software engineer. More importantly than the language is the foundation. So many people fall into specific frameworks and tools without getting a strong computer science background. (By the way this doesn't mean you have to study computer science for 4 years and drop 100k. You can learn the fundamentals yourself). So I would say if you get the basics right you can learn any language/framework to build games and you'll be highly sought after by employers.
@@gibbonbasher8171 Don't worry bro I'm 20 and I'm also new to these things. Your not alone.
@@ColorCodeio C++ historically is the language of choice for gaming engineers. Exceptions if you’re making a game on IOS or something specific like that.
If you can make a few clones of games in C++ or a very detailed game mod (in C++) you’ll be headed in the right direction.
Sorry to be vague, but I need your advice sir. I am 19, know C++, Java, SQL, Php basics, HTML, CSS, BBC and basics of Python. I worked on making RPG games with RPG MAKER but it was very simple one. I am interested in making games and Bot softwares. What are my scopes and what should I learn from now?
Great Video man! This is the first of yours I've seen and I liked it. I'm thinking of changing careers to programming. Im trying to get more info to see what specific field, thats how i came upon your video. Thank you for putting videos like this one up. You keep it real and I can appreciate that. Cheers from Cali brother I'm #subscribed
Greg thanks a bunch dude 👊🏼You made my day. Message me on facebook or instagram if you wanna talk about career stuff. I'll be happy to help.
Actually a great video :) 234 subs is not alot for the quality of videos you make :P
Thanks Nikolaj :) Appreciate the comment. The channel is fairly new so it's growing slowly. If you think someone can benefit from it please share 👍🏼👊🏼

Hello! I really wanna become a programmer. I’m 22 and have NO idea where to start. Could I message u please? I’m trying to start school this year but I have no idea what I’m doing lol.
Sina Jazayeri i did thank u!
In India every 5 out of 5 people is a programmer.
😑
Can I become a NYC programmer if I get my programmer degree in Romania?(I am a 13 year old boy,learning c++ currently).My dream is to see and live in America,I would love to see my dream reality.
You can absolutely become a programmer and work in America. Work on your skills, learn relevant languages and frameworks, get real life experience with real life projects, and you'll be on your way to success. Message me on instagram and I can help you. @colorcode.io
Have you completed it ?
Hello! I'm 22 years old. I haven't learned anything about programming, but i'm pretty good with computers and i have a logic mind (from my point of view). My question is, can i start learning programming now, or is it too late? I live in Romania btw. My father has some money and would like to invest in something, and i was thinking of telling him to start an IT firm, and hire me once i get good. What should the firm be about, what can programmers do, which domain is the most profitable? Thank you for your time!
Robert, it is definitely not too late. If you have ant interest in programming I suggest start as soon as you can. Take an online course. Watch my videos. Build stuff. The information is all out there and is free. Try that for 6 months. If you still love it and want to pursue it there are a lot of different options, even if you don't get your dad involved. Send me an email or instagram message and I can help you.
@@ColorCodeio Thank you so much for replying that fast! I wrote on you Insagram. Thank you again!
haha. Unless something crazy happens in the near future. 3:18 Welcome to 2023 and AI causing a decrease in demand for programmers :)
My personal prediction: The increase in productivity (due to AI) will result in more programming jobs, not fewer.
@@ColorCodeio I was saying that for a while this year. But I am seeing so many people saying that they have been applying to hundreds of jobs, or even a thousand jobs, and not a single response. I hope this changes around for everyone because 2023 seems grim for programmers
Awesome video! i have just started self-studying web development, but this gave me motivation to keep working hard to reach my goal of becoming web developer. great ending too!
Home Team thank you so much for that awesome comment. Made my day. Instagram or email me if you need help.
im a kid programmer im just 13 i only know 2 programming languages html and javascript right now im learning python bcz i know its gonna help me in future.
That's awesome Math Zimmer! Keep up the good work and message us if you get stuck somewhere.
ColorCode sure! Thanks
html is not a real language, bruh
but it's useful though
sesh give the kid a break
Gatekeeping.
What about python programmers.
Python not a lot of money maybe . But puthon is for the peaple they want to start programming
Sorry my English is so bad
I am currently 15 years old, I will start learning programming in the summer
That's awesome! Good luck.
where have you reached
this video might actually change my life for ever :) i live in a shit ass government country and if i push my self and get rid of of some things in my life i could reach this numbers , the thing is i didn't know what to do with my life until i saw this , so tnq man , u might never know what you did , but u did alot
Wow thank you so much for that comment. I'm so glad to hear that. Get in touch with me on instagram or email.
But can you work like in a company or something and get monthly salary i live in germany
Yes, all of these numbers I shared are for full time positions.
i wish it was 10 years ago. even if i was descent i would automatically find employment at 16 probably.
It's never too late. I see people of all ages and skill levels get hired one place or another.
I'm 14 and I know Java, C# and Blueprint
That's awesome!
Would you like to work with us?? $200000/year..

Don't ever be embarrassed for being in the process of learning. I often struggle with the most basic stuff. But at least we are learning and not sitting on the couch watching stupid television. Boom!
ColorCode Thanks man!
hello sir ..i am from india and i am 19 and i want to be a advanced programmers..................but i dont what's the salary?
Depends where in the world, but if you are considering the U.S I would recommend focusing on your skills and getting better at what you do. The salary will be more than enough, certainly above average.
im learning programming and im 12 this rlly inspired me even more because i know what my finances are going to be!
saucy boiz that’s awesome! Just keep learning, get really good at programming and the money will come. I’m excited for you
ColorCode IKR thanks for the support 👍
@@qncient how’s it going?
@@RealWarrior2k forgot i even commented this lol im now 14 soon to be 15 and the coding has been going great tbh im learning game development
I'm starting out coding too, any tips on where to learn/start?
I make 319,000 us dollars monthly. But I worked very hard to accomplish this dream you can do anything you want just work hard!!!
What if you have a noticeable amount of knowledge and some fairly successful projects in your CV but you don't have a relevant degree of education (i.e MSc in business administration)
will you still stand a chance in working in a big company?
and what salary group will you fit in?
Makes virtually no difference at this point in time. Big companies, or small for that matter, look for skills and experience unless you are applying for a specific computer science niche which 90% of engineering jobs are not.
@@ColorCodeio Thanks a lot dude 🙏
I laughed at this. Managers and Starbucks make more than this with no student loans. Why the hell would someone pay 15k or more for a bootcamp to make 50k a year. I'm surprised.
I have some questions what is the best programming language to start off with in a young age of 13 and is html, css and JavaScript a good idea? And when do people usually start freelancing? I know this comment is so late I’m just soooo dang confused with things and I just need some help thank you
Edit: oh and how much of a difference it is to be a web dev and a game dev and is web dev for me a good idea?
It all depends on where your interest are. And I say that because you can basically learn anything you want online these days. So it's less about what's better, it's more about what's better for you and to you. If you don't know where your interests are I would recommend starting with web development as it touches on a wide range of skills and paradigms that will help you decide where to specialize in a few years.
This is a kind offer video i wasn't looking thank you man, am starting from zero this month here in Africa, does you believe if a still chance here in Africa. ..?
Ibrahim Hassan absolutely dude. The beauty of coding is you can do it from anywhere. If you’re good you can get work around the world and your clients won’t even need to ever meet you. Please don’t let your location prevent you from learning and working. Let’s go 👊🏼👊🏼
@@ColorCodeio amazing thanks alot again ....
so how many years does a junior have to give to become a senior? 5 years or so?
So l have been study programming like C# Java C++ or Data colleague if you wanna to became software programmer ,you will get $ 5000 per month
Thanks for your comment
He is honest
Thank you so much way better then techlead or joma, felt like we sat in a Starbucks and drank Cappuccino and talked about my future and opportunity in tech. Loved it
Thank you. Glad you liked it!
Can u be a programmer if u dont know much about programming (now) but go to a programming colledge (after)?
Yes. Lots of self-taught programmers are working full-time in the industry. Most of my content is geared toward people who didn't go to colleage.
Do you need to be graduated from college?
Not at all.

Sir what salary for proggramer in america dollor???
That's right.. So all the concern about visas and such and not having enough programmers... It defiantly brings thr averages down !
Having more programmers available will bring down the average, just as it is with anything else. But there are potential changes proposed to the H1-b visa which will make it harder for programmers to come to the US which will oversaturate the industry even more than it is today.
Country-wide averages are misleading. Take Google for example. T3 (not senior) makes 110k, 50k stock, and 15% annual bonus, totaling roughly 175k a year. T5 (senior) at Google makes a little more than twice that, around 360k a year. "But Google is the exception" no, not really. FB, Amazon, Apple, and Netflix all pay very similarly to Google. Other big names in the industry (Microsoft, Snap, Uber) all pay almost as much as Google. Sure, that's not the average, but if you're a good software developer, the pay ceiling is really, really high
👍🏻
Monthly???
These numbers are annual salaries.
ColorCode thatnk you

To be honest the internet is not really true with salaries because bare in mind they are calculating a median from the lowest to highest salaries. But as a junior developer they made like 70k and senior developers can make over 200k. No lie
I really wanna start programming, where should I start, and how?
It’s a great time to start. You can watch my intro to programming course here: ruclips.net/p/PL1PqvM2UQiMqeYGLozGslKPdkEBYU3Xq1

Zhng guo Ren huh?
Is 103k good salary
Depends on your lifestyle :) But mostly it depends on your location, experience and the type of work. In most places 103k is a pretty good salary and can afford you a comfortable life, where I am, in New York City, it's not that high. Also, if you have several years of experience you could make much much more depending on what you bring to the table. Again, it depends on a lot of things but overall it's a great start and you should strive to make even more.

Are these permanent salaries, what about contract rates ? Either way salaries in Europe are shitty compared to this, Senior Java Developer can get around 70k EUR.
@Tomek, you're right. These are permanent salaries for U.S only. Contract rates are a much wider range. 70K for a Senior Java Developer is low but then again you have better pastries in Europe :)
Tomek Samcik if its 70k pounds then its not bad. thats 90k in U.S dollars.
