Now that's one inspiring story. $1600 a month in the Bay Area for 3 people? Holy shit. You gotta wonder how these guys did it...

  It's doable but, as you would expect, it requires an extremely spartan lifestyle. I'm running about $500/month in SF and am no stranger couch surfing, lots of roommates, sleeping in my car, and (intelligently) fasting, etc. I could theoretically go even lower by purchasing lower quality food but I'm not willing to compromise my health. Once you've seen the worst-scenario first-hand you realize it's not that bad, and you can shoot for the moon without any fear.

    > and (intelligently) fasting, Go to the hinterland once a month for cheap gorging on good food; fast the rest of the month in SF?
