  > I had moved to San Francisco to break into the tech world after being accepted into one of those ubiquitous 12-week coding boot camps. I had dreams of becoming a programmer, hoping one day I could land a remote contracting gig — a job where I could work from wherever and make a good living. FFS, who is selling the lie that this is the only way to get started?

      I pay $1150 to rent a 1600 sq ft house with a giant corner lot and a 2-car garage in North Houston.
