Would probably spend like less than $20k annually in living expenses (just like I already do right now).

That gives me $100k in Bitcoin and $80k on traditional retirement investments annually.

Would probably be retired in like half a decade, a decade tops.

Yep. Work for a year. Live in my car or the cheapest possible apartment. Buy a house after a year and live off a low stress part time job until death. My mental health when I'm working 50 hours versus 25 hours is drastically different. 20-25 I'm just naturally happy.

Better gyms and more accessibility to hobbies and entertainment. More shit to do. Good luck finding anything decent regarding sports, martial arts, etc outside of cities.
More likelihood of meeting people with the same interests as you
More women. Dating apps only really work in bigger cities. More events and places to meet women as well.
More opportunity in general (jobs, education, etc) if you're a young and ambitious guy.
Free estrogen in the water supply
More wagies to laugh at as life goes by.

What can I say man, I just love the hustle and bustle of the big city. You don't have to live anywhere near niggers if you make enough. Think that when I say city I don't mean any of these MegaCities full of drug addicts and crime. Any city with a population in the low six figures is generally more than enough.

Living in bumfuck nowhere only works if you're very well established there (plenty of friends, very good job there, etc) or if your only aspiration is to be a neet and live life through a computer screen. I lost so many years of my early adulthood because I was stuck in a shithole with little opportunities. I'd rather get all the downsides of city living but get skills and improve financially and move later to the outskirts or a smaller town than stay all my life in the middle of nowhere and miss out on so much.

If you make $260k instead of $80k and your rent is $4k instead of $1k then don't you still come out ahead?

It's NYC (city PLUS state) vs southern state taxes that kill me. But it's the price I pay to have fun in an active city while I'm young. I don't plan to live here forever.

The idea is this:
If your expenses are 90% of your pay in the middle of nowhere and they're still 90% in an expensive place, then you'll still save more money and thus come out ahead in the more expensive place, because saving 10% of $200k is better than saving 10% of $80k.

It's even better if you're saving 30-50%.

I was raised in the middle of nowhere. I hated it and moved to a city at 19. The reason why I hated it was because it offered nothing to an 18 year old except vastly increased difficulty. No transport, no opportunity, little choice/variety across an inevitably high cost of living, no easy exposure to anything interesting, fun, entertaining etc.

In a city you don't always need transport, you can access a lot of jobs and opportunities, at least there is a variety in potential cost of living. It worked really well for me for a time.

I'm not stupid enough to say that I always know it all and that my current mind is basically the only way I will ever be, but the countryside didn't work for me and eventually the city didn't work either. I live in ... don't want to call it suburbia, it is a village that has started to be absorbed into the edge of the city, it was a village before there was a city, it isn't just residential, but I guess that the city is now so important that it might as well just be a place to live.

This too has worked for me for a time as I've needed extra space, a garden etc room for projects and hobbies as I've been more invested in the home rather than going out.

Even now though I am outgrowing that. I want to get back to a rural location. Because I've got resources now. The city is horrible for me at this point in my life. I rarely interact with it unless I have to.

So 200k a year but in an area where a middle-class house comes in at something like $160k and has an acre or so of property that goes with it instead of costing $800k-$1.2mm with no yard?

That's almost a no-brainer if you're a salary chaser.
