Really? It was my impressions that the cost of living in SF in much, much higher. Cost of living in London is high but I don't find it too bad and I know lots of people on much lower salaries than me who don't find it too difficult either. Of course this is assuming you're young/no dependents etc. but that's most startup founders.

"In fact, research shows that the median age of U.S.-born tech company founders is 39, and there are twice as many entrepreneurs older than 50 than there are younger that age 25."

- k-mcgrady 11y agoInteresting, thanks for the correction. I had a feeling that was going to happen lol
- josephmx 11y agoI wonder if that's because older founders (assuming age = more experienced) are more likely to succeed or last longer than a very young (<25) founder, so they don't go back to normal jobs for longer if at all.
