On balance, anyone remote before the pandemic and traveling the world has probably had a better life than someone with the same skills making double the salary in SV. Just the reduction in poop on sidewalks speaks for itself.
Apparently this comment triggered someone lol.
- astrange 6y agoSan Francisco isn't in Silicon Valley. They're just pretending.
- dang 6y agoScene_Cast2 should add this as a fourth element to their list.
- ketamine__ 6y agoIt will all make it to n-gate.com. Don't worry.
- Rebelgecko 6y agoMaybe this is falling into the trap that OP wanted to avoid but I think you're right. Sure, if I moved to the Bay Area my income would go up by 10-15%. But about half of that would go straight to taxes, and IMO the remainder wouldn't be enough to set me up with a comparable quality of life.
