This article reads like a self-promotional, self-important fluff piece. Leaving all the congratulatory of her own career aside, she decides on blockchain and decides on LA.....not New York or Singapore or places that actually have alot of financial expertises she can learn.

Tell yourself the truth; you're afraid of the intense competition in SV. You're going to LA for the weather, and live an easy life. There's no tech in LA except the big tech companies.
- junkscience2017 9y agoLA is cheaper than NYC or Singapore while still having big city amenities and a decent peer/talent pool. In her shoes I would keep on going and land somewhere in the OC...even cheaper but close enough to a metropolitan area to keep her connected to her contemporaries.
- nobleach 9y ago...Intense competition with little real reward other than being able to tell people that you work in SV. While you may make 150,000, you can barely afford one room in a shared house. But, you DO work in SV so, there's that. If one wants to work in tech, there are a ton of places one can do so. I know that SV holds this position of tech nirvana in the minds of nerds (said affectionately, not as a pejorative)... but some folks really do enjoy having tangible real rewards for their hard work.
