Here's a very simple way of describing why I'm so long on SF/Bay Area, and why I think even more ambitious young people are going to keep moving here to replace all the FAANG employees leaving for Montana "You can't get promoted over Zoom"

Seasoned SF’ers have become desensitized to the fact that there is nowhere else in the world where young ambitious people are given the resources to turn their dreams into reality. No, not in Austin. No, not even in Tel Aviv, the heart of the startup nation. I’ve lived in both.

nowhere else are 24yr olds given $5m to pursue an idea and no one minds if it doesn't work and will happily give them another chance
