You mean you pay for the privilege, as do I. We pay to take less employment risk.

- ixtli 9y agoI wonder about this. I definitely pay more but (and this is a bit hand-wavey, i admit) it seems like the opportunity i'd be wasting if i lived anywhere else is FAR greater than the insane rent.
- ryandrake 9y agoI moved from Nowhereville, USA to the Bay Area for that exact trade off: higher cost of living but lower career risk. Here, if things don’t work out with my employer I take 6 months or so and find another job locally. In Nowhereville, I’m likely moving to a different state if I need another job.
