Living in SF is a choice, for technologists. In addition to the absurd rent, there is also the lifestyle nominally associated with the choice to live in SF. The bars, the restaurants, the nightlife, the shows, etc.
- serge2k 10y agoIt's a perfectly valid choice to take advantage of that when you don't have a family and all the associated responsibilities yet.
