Here’s the job description:

I need a reliable and talented php-developer who can use best practice development (version controlling, well commented and tested code, etc.) to develop a peer-2-peer lending site with a team.

Is this the going rate for PHP developers these days? Doubt it.

There’s a really interesting thread on Reddit about this job posting. It seems like many of the comments note that $7 in India is worth more than $40 in the U.S.
