how much does an software engineer earn abroad???

For me if a software engineer working in a well known reputed company whatever his/her drawing per annum is sufficient for livelihood. If he/she is working in a small company (like MNC by an Indian) his/her annual drawing is as equal as the monthly income of a software engineer who is working in a well established renowned company. Now compare and imagine how will be his/her life. However he/she will bring happiness in his/her life. The same situation is going to be happened in my life. Before the company where i am working now is sending me abroad i left that company even without having a offer letter of other company in my hand. By the way i got another job from a reputed company very soon.
