> nice to be rich

You don't have to be rich at all to have a nice office, you just need the flexibility to not have to be required to live in one of a handful a major metro areas where work is located.

That's why we're in a housing boom, because you can pay 50% over asking for more than 2x your living space, and reduce your monthly housing payment 20% or more.

I'll have saved enough from moving to afford all of the office equipment you describe just in the difference between my old rent and current mortgage... not to mention that every tech company I've worked at would gladly provide that setup to remote employees that needed it.
