Great to chat with you as well, great conversation and I appreciate the hard questions. Median teacher salary in 2012 was $59k according to public school data, restaurant servers with tips make the highest salary per geo of the restaurant industry in San Francisco clocking in at $50k base with between $20-50k in tips totaling $70k to $100k. We don't want to stop at $50k as a baseline though. Our 3 buildings under construction will have suites that can be afforded on a $25k a year salary. Our goal is to build, at scale, for those making minimum wage. We can only do that by brining down the cost of housing further which is the core focus of our business.
