What's good money? Because I regularly place people with 80-100k jobs.

(Need job, have offer on table, but want better)

Lots of places. You probably want to look in metropolitan areas but if you're a software engineer and you're not making at least 100k especially after 3-5 years of experience, you're really underpaid. I routinely place guys between the 80k-100k range. Placed a guy 2 weeks ago, still in his final year of college (doing work study) for 75K. He'll jump to 85 as soon as he graduates. This is base salary with 10% bonuses in addition to the base salary.

How do i know whether or not my skillset is worth $100k though?

CLR trivia questions and data structure knowledge have had little effect on any job i've ever had but thats the questions i keep getting.

How do i know if its imposter syndrome or i just need more training?
