What's the highest salary you've heard of?
The lowest?
Any ideas of entry level salaries?
Planning my future, yo.

In the US, entry-level salaries are somewhere around $55K+ (depending on location). The range can go up past $150K with experience.

Not bad (assuming it's around the same for the UK, forgot to state my residence, sorry.)
Entry-level is $55k in the US?? Sounds nice and high!! (Or is the dollar weak against the pound?)
See http://www.jobserve.co.uk for a good range of job listings.
Sticking in "graduate AND C++", it looks like it's circa £23k and up, depending on location and industrial sector.
The financial sector pays the best, but it's not everyone's cup of tea. And the big banks are shedding a lot of jobs at the moment, so it's prob. harder work than usual to get a job in that sector.
The highest annual salary I could see was for a quantitative developer, which was up to £300k. I gather the top rate for this kind of role is even higher, but you won't see ads for the top positions: they're all head hunted!

If you can't live off of 55k+ in the US, you have very serious self control problems.
