Yeah I'm really wondering what OP's income is like now

  Standard Bay Area tech salary for someone with around a decade of experience: 150k-500k With an SO in the Life Sciences space: $100-300k That's why a lot of Californians can afford it. A lot of us marry peers in the same income brackets.

    Pretty much anyone with a decade of experience at the big tech companies is making at least the top end of that range.

      Not even BigTech. Even medium sized startups can pay a $500k TC for someone with a decade+ of experience (how else do you see so many L5 Engineers turned EMs or Tech Leads at startups after a bad review cycle)
