Even Bay Area tech workers don't have it that well, except for those useless parachute executives/PMs brought in by VC king-makers. First, there's the cost of living that precludes savings even on a salary that would be enviable in most of the country. Second, that creepy culture of age discrimination (which has no place in tech) thanks to VC chickenhawks means people have about 20 years to make money.
