Fast forward 15 years and despite moving out of the city, and saving as much as I could, I still don't see how I could afford to live in SF.
Honestly it boggles the mind a little bit. I'm motivated, worked supposedly in the right industry, and would love to live there, but it makes zero financial sense whatsoever. WHO can afford these 1.5 - 3.0 ---> 15+ million dollar homes?
At times I wonder, have I just absolutely failed at working in tech? Should I have been pulling $500k a year or something for the last 10 years? I never did work for FANG so maybe thats it? I mean is that it? Work for FANG and you can afford SF? Or what am I missing? 15 years of working and saving and I still couldn't live there.
