You need some perspective you are completely screwed up! $120k at FAANG is like minimum wage in the Bay area; the poverty rate in San Jose is $95k for a family of four. We with $120k you can look forward to renting a 1-bedroom apartment all your life ... The bay area is like living in Tokyo...
This individual wasn't going to the Bay area or to work for 'FAANG'. I think you need to get some perspective. For one thing, in no universe is $100k 'poverty rate' anywhere. I can guarantee those that are making this salary are not poor. To even suggest it is delusional (and I will grant that this was probably a joke).
