Salary or rate is a measure to take into account when looking for work. 
The very least I'll look at is "market rate". When a company uses an 
employment agency they will tell them their budget. The Agency will 
probably not waste their time contacting people who want more than the 
budget.
Remember if you pay peanuts expect to employ monkeys. ^^
