I don't live in the US but get the impression that US prices have skyrocketed in many cities? Like paying $20 for a sandwich in California for example, or $4k rents in New York. So even though the dollar is a stronger currency internationally, it's worth less and less within the country?
If that's true, retiring in Europe might get more and more common for US software developers...
- vlunkr 4y agoI imagine many developers just retire outside of the big cities, where prices drop drastically.
- reducesuffering 4y agoEven in East Bay Area, you'll pay $10 for a sandwich and $2k for renting a 1 br apartment. It's not that much more than Western Europe for an equivalent thing.
