You can't tell me someone who bought a home in 1980 in SF for 200 or 300k isn't better off financially in 2018 than someone who put 200k in funds and no extra investments at all in the same year. A 200k home in 1980 is probably worth about 2 million today in SF. It's for this reason I'll never move anywhere near there, I just don't see myself being to afford it even, if I do become a rockstar ai developer or something. I personally would like though for people outside SF to get more remote opps at higher rates than elsewhere, maybe even just drive up the freelance/conctract rates, although I think a lot of contract rates have to do with levels of imposter syndrome, I'm an intermediate dev, who is probably comparable to some senior devs by now, but still feel like I'm charging too much if I go above $50/hour, but part of me knows I can get $100/hour.
