> jersey is right next to nyc and nyc has high salaries too yea i agree. what i mean is wealthy tech bro in silicon valley vs wealthy finance bro in nyc. big tech has huge armies of people making 300k-1m. finance culture is different, they buttfuck tons of people earning <200k, then the people doing the buttfucking make 1m+ so there are fewer of them. statistically there are way better chances in bay area.  t. have worked in both industries, lived in both places.
