Puru and I were software engineers in Silicon Valley. Salaries are high, but the cost of living is disproportionately higher. Puru moved out of here, and I plan to do so too.

Actually i got an offer to move there but i am still thinking. Still I am fine being freelancer in Europe and doing stuff for Benelux countries which pay well. May i ask You something? Why do you want to leave Silicon Valley?

Yeah the salaries are much higher compared to anywhere I've heard of in Europe. I used to work with immigrants from France, UK, Spain, Germany, and Australia... all developed countries but with low salary prospects for Software Engineers. Although, an Indian colleage of mine had gotten an offer for a $180k/year job with a utility company in Norway but he turned it down because he didn't want to live in rural Norway and didn't want to give up his progress with US immigration.

I left for many reasons. Because a lot of people make those salaries (10 % of people make more than $180k there), everything is expensive. Even a couple where each person is making $150k + will not be able to buy a house in an area with good schools and short commutes. It's a  ty life. A lot of my Silicon Valley friends are moving out for similar reasons.

It's also boring as hell. Outside of SF most of SV is a giant suburb.It's the worst place to spend your 20s as a single dude. I hate to sound like Trump but it really is a sh(I)thole in my perspective.

That's interesting. Thank You for your opinion. I mean these salaries are possible in Switzerland or Norway but its expensive to live there aswell.

No problem. I realize that it is a bit extreme of an opinion. The place has good weather and is great if you love outdoorsy stuff. Just not my cup of tea.

Agreed. Don't forget though, time is also money. External methods might be "cheaper", but if the recovery/time away from work is longer, then the actual cost is higher (opportunity cost).

Mini update

Jogged 2 miles yesterday. Legs were really sore all day today.

Hey Puru,

I've posted a timeline of your progress on my diary since someone claimed my recovery was slow and I wanted to compare it with yours. Thank you for being an inspiration!

How recovered would you say you are at this point, vs. your pre-CLL abilities?
