  • I see a lot of people claiming that they need to live in some super Metro City just to advance their career. Frankly, it usually isn’t true. First of all, most new grads moving to the big city are going to be one of a billion people available and so good luck with that. Going to a place with needs but a much smaller talent pool is more likely to result in you getting a job then a place with needs and a massive talent pool.

    Then there’s the fact that you’d be building your career in a place with an absolutely ungodly cost of living. Let’s say that you do have a successful career. What’s the point? You’ll be in the top 1% of income, and barely making rent.
