That's about the only way
That the scale above could have any bearing on reality. And even then it's pushing it. I can't tell you how many managers I've seen who don't have it and don't have a clue.
I have my CCNP (yet only about 1 yr hands-on experience), and the current job in Dallas, TX area (to debunk that the salaries there are so much higher), and my salary is still beneath the 'minimum' of $70k which is listed above.
Now, admittedly, I took it as much to get the extra experience as well as learn the other techs available here, but it still points out the fallacy of the chart above.
