It's incredible how many people work skilled jobs in the high-tech industry but are poor anyway.

California seems to be the worst; it's like Ethiopia for geeks.

Yeah well if the geeks didn't have to pay $1500 a month for a shoebox in the area where the tech jobs are, they might not be so poor.

Yep.

That, and a lot of the geeks over there worked for what amounted to stock options.

Then they got s00per poor when their company dot-bombed or went tits up.
