If you have some unique skill sets you may get up there....400k is probably a bit of a porky but some guys who work in the same place as me here in the UAE are on about 200k....some more!
Yeah but (aside the fact that those folks have probably been in the industry for 30 years to get there) your numbers are dollars - the OP is talking £s!
400,000£ would be about $640,000 (US) at the current rate. Pretty ironic being told that by a school in NZ of all places....

If they really told him that, I'd suggest to your brother to run away as fast as he can.
