SF renters need to earn $61 per hour to afford two-bed apartment (sf.curbed.com)

It's an insane waste of money. Luckily neither me or my partner want to have kids, so we are perfectly fine renting a super small place for 3k/month while we make crazy money that we can stash away and will buy us complete financial freedom within a decade or less (unless we drop dead first or we get laid off, which is always a strong possibility).
