- leetcrew 7y agothe article is explicitly targeting white collar tech workers. of course it's a privileged take. this isn't a callout so much as restating the intro of the article.
- throwlaplace 7y ago>including, potentially, re-location to areas with a lower cost of living as someone else has said: how many white collar tech workers can re-locate at the drop of a hat?
- leetcrew 7y agonot many, unless you're deciding right now whether to renew your lease for the next year. this is an odd thing to pick on though. > As others have discussed, one can minimize the impact of a recession by maximizing one’s personal runway, which involves cost-cutting measures (including, potentially, re-location to areas with a lower cost of living). in context, this is a brief aside where he's explaining that he's not going to cover general cost-cutting in your personal life. it's tangential to the topic addressed by the article.
