One of my buddies who works at Google basically lives in a hacker commune so he can pocket most of his earnings post tax. Not sure quite what he does with it.
Sits in an account until the day that he gets suckered into marriage and home ownership
After that a messy divorce and funds are in lawyer and exwifey account and back to the commune
Commune will be 2beaucoup after a tech-salary divorce, only solution is evading the lifetime alimony police by sleeping in the desert, where your only friends are scorpions and your only food is the same ;)
