Senior dev positions in the Bay area can fetch like 300k/yr base pay or higher. You can afford monthly down payments with an income this high. If you are married your income can go even higher. US tax code also allows you to average your income if you file together. Eg. If one person is staying at home and the other makes 300k/yr, your income tax is calculated as if two people made 150k/yr each. This can greatly reduce your taxes.
our nearby neighbor in the bay area left a while ago, but the new owners, new parents payed around 1.8mil-2mil for the house. also they were quite delusional of why they even bought it. they thought they had priority because of them being new parents plus i overheard them they wouldve never afforded it if thier parents dint pitch in for the renovations. the wife is not as nice as the husband, since shes so “introverted” she gives off a karen vibe.
2 other families moved in the neighborhood over the years, and close to us and they were all "the soccer mom types, they were not nice people. the husband tends to stay out of it,.(one of them has a giant lifted truck, and the soccer mom had a tesla “suv”. gentrification is pretty much a problem, we actually did a presentation while i was in college over other areas.
Seriously who the fuck is able to do this and how is it sustainable as a system?
I don’t mean to be an accelerationist but let’s all get guns and wrap this the fuck up already.
