I work in healthcare and make 100k however my rent is 3k for a small studio, which is actually pretty cheap for this area. I pay 36k in rent and that’s NOT including utilities. Heck even a parking spot is $300/month. Now, living in SF, I also get taxed like crazy for city benefits (literally half my paycheck). And with other things like medical bills, food, etc…it’s impossible. So yeah I’m barely making it here.

I work in the city and very few people make over 100k. The city is expensive and its one reason why people want full remote. No hybrid 100% remote. By being remote we can move to a lower cost area while keeping your 50k income.

It's not uncommon to make over $100k. It's just the majority don't. But for most cities, $100k income is only tip 20% of earners. So 1/5 make over. That's is a lot of people. I probably wouldn't use few or very few until we started talking about 1% salaries.

As a multiple decade resident of San Francisco it doesn't surprise me at all to hear that most of the highly paid folks work in tech, and anyone working with humans makes less. As a substance and mental health counselor working in the HIV field for many years I find this a frustrating fact of life in the US. Wish it could be more equal. It's difficult to keep up with bills and expenses and try to save anything. I like this channel and the concept of salary transparency. One suggestion might be to go to all different neighborhoods, not just the financial district.

@Brandon-tz5pn Жыл бұрын

100k is about 8000$ a month. If rent is 3000 (even though you can find cheaper) you still have 5000$ left. What else are you spending your money on? the only things thats expensive is gas but if you live in san Francisco you dont have to drive. I never understood what people meant by this. I could easily live off 50k a year in the bay area.

This is shocking. All those tech salaries are grossly underpaid for the Bay Area, except for the software engineer making 230k. Unless they have only had 1-2 years of experience, they should be making ~75% more than their current salaries. yikes.

Tech industry is misleading. one can make lots of money in the private tech industry but things can change overnight because it's constantly evolving into the next big thing. You can be making 270k one year and laid off the next. Companies are in a foot race to corner the next big thing in technology. not to mention a lot of jobs are being outsourced. Always some new idea on the horizon. AI is a perfect example. how it looks today will be nothing like how it will look 5 years from now.

@@Brandon-tz5pn rents are often more than 2500 a person, especially in the city areas where offices are most likely located. I worked for a FAANG company and I saved a bunch, but I did have to live with roommates and in overpriced old housing. If you get a single apartment you'd see your rent raise during your yearly renewals that way outpaced any yearly raise you got. I left because I never felt I would be able to own a home despite making a good 6 figure salary to most people outside of the area.
