Maybe Twitter isn't real life

All right.

Hello.

Hey.

Did you catch up on the New York Times article from the weekend about how impossible it is to make life work in San Francisco when you're only making $380,000 a year or whatever the actual number was?

I will admit to only seeing the Twitter summary on this, but I can imagine that both you and I are like... shaking our heads and like doing the math on our early San Francisco existence because, oh my gosh, at 27, I can't even imagine having a combined $365,000 base pay salary with my partner.

It's such a sign of the times and how warped I think people's expectations are.

And also a bubble, because I think the thing that I'm baffled by is these young people they voluntarily spoke to the New York times on the record and gave their full name and employer,

which means it didn't as very smart, capable

people, nothing, no alarm bells on like a, this might be absolutely out of touch.

I mean, even I live in the city of San Francisco and this was extremely out of touch because I think somebody just did like a zoom in on Zillow rents and it's like,

yeah, if you're only looking, In these two neighborhoods, it's

really hard to find an apartment under whatever it was, like $5,000 or whatever.

But look at the rest of San Francisco and all these other places.

Also, $4,000 when you're making that amount of money, that math's for me.

I have had way worse ratios.

I think my first apartment in San Francisco – was a two-bedroom that I shared with my roommate.

And we split rent that was $2,500 a month.

But I was making $35,000 then.

So their ratio way outperforms mine.

And I was also living a good life.

Like I wasn't living lavishly, but I

wasn't

suffering.

Like you wouldn't have – spoken to the New York Times about how hard life was.

That's how good your life was.
