Have you ever actually lived in OKC? It is an awful quality of life for many reasons. I highly recommend not living there. If investing is only about rent and salaries, you may as well hire in Sub-Saharan Africa. Lots of tech talent lives there, I'm sure.

I have never lived in OKC and simply used to make a point, as did the parent comment.

Take Iowa, South Dakota, Utah, Texas then. If you are a senior software engineer with a family, SF or NYC wouldn't be your top choice.

Investing isn't about only rent and salaries its about capital to grow. I would also say that investing in a bunch of super risk takers can work but could also leave you with a bunch of unicorns you can't dump off to the public.
