It's interesting how some people react negatively to this.
This is what young people who want to "make it big in the city" have done it for ages all over the planet. Just the city and the industry varies, but the story remains the same. Nothing about it is particular to SF or tech startups.
Sure, you may be able to achieve the same goals from a more comfortable place, but for many people that's missing out on 50% of the adventure. When it all comes down to it, these are the experiences that last, regardless of whatever failure or success follows.

I think you'd see the same negative reaction if this was a blog post telling would-be actors how to live cheap as waiters in Hollywood.
