Yeah I think the dollar has been completely decimated. There is nowhere to hide, assets are no longer ripping, but cost of living is higher than ever. For a family that wants to be upper middle class, 500k really is not that much, if you want to save and live comfortably/go on vacations, drive a nice car.

That might be true for Bay Area. What about other states, Arizona, Nevada, Nebraska, Montana etc. ?
I am not from US, but I don't get why tech companies can only have offices in Bay Area.
