I hate those places man  . Would be my last preference though i consider SFO for other reasons. 

Over a period of time there will not be a difference in where you live, but full time jobs in the big three cities are gold. I don’t know if you have 401k but when you retire if you don’t have atleast 2 million you will live in poverty in the US. People buy a home for 700k/800k and pay mortgage until retirement, get the big 401k contributions from the big companies and go to smaller cities or towns. 800k house ammesi Florida lanti places lo illu theesukuntaru for 200-300k. The 401k will give them upper middleclass life style after retirement.

Life is not all about 401k , bank balance and properties. Each person has their priorities. I care less for these and believe in quality of life. Different people different thought processes.

I don’t know. Sometimes you have to be a sheep. Sometimes a lion. When so many people are doing it then there must be a decent enough reason for it. The likelihood of you being wrong is more if you make decisions on your own. Fulltime job in big cities with good time management with less travel will give you a good quality of life. Inka money, backup and pension is set with the housing strategy I told you about.

I am happy with what i am today. I have confidence that i will progress in due course of time. Anni vishyallo money doesn't have to be in equation. I rather concentrate on having quality in life.

Same work different places give different amount. Indian lo 13 lakshalaku chese pani ikkada 130k ki chesthunnavu. When you retire who will be richer and have a better quality of life? The one who is here or the one who is in India? 300k iche work ni 130k Ki Florida lo chestharu ante thappu ledhu but when you get 300k your 401k will give you 100% return every year. Inka house sell chesthe after you retire you are saving close to 500k. That is a lot of money. You can give good life to your kids too. For example if they want to be a doctor then the costs can be covered a little this way.

I don't care who is earning what and quality of life depends on choices you make not just on money though that's a factor too.

Unde place kuda ikkada ayite enta contribution akkada ayite enta return ani  anta calculative life i dont think i can lead. Life is short enduku anta complicate chesukovadam think simple and do what you love is my thing. Anyways agree to disagree .
