Original Summary

I&#x27;ve worked in tech now for 15 years, generally &quot;high paying&quot;. I lived in SF for the first 4 of this years, between 2014-2018 and remember hearing all about how it was us tech workers who were responsible for high home prices.<p>Fast forward 15 years and despite moving out of the city, and saving as much as I could, I still don&#x27;t see how I could afford to live in SF.<p>Honestly it boggles the mind a little bit. I&#x27;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 ---&gt; 15+ million dollar homes?<p>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&#x27;t live there.
