6793026 hit it on the head with the evaluations in Vancouver. But there are a few other trade oriented jobs that could net you 100k as long as you don't mind not having a work/life balance. IE: Cement truck drivers hit 100k easily due to having lots of OT.
I've hit 60+ this year but don't feel any "richer" than when I made 25k it also definitely feels like its not enough to live in Vancouver on my own.

I don't think the original comment meant $80k out of school, but in general making $80k (if that's what I interpreted from referring back to the comment on the page before, correct me if I'm wrong).
A lot of people expect things or feel entitled because they feel they earned it. Example, graduate from UBC/SFU (university degree), should be getting $30/hr+ right off the bat. I've worked with many that feel once they earned a couple years of working experience, they should be promoted to senior.
