Saw this comment from Dave Malouf on the IxDA list:
You’ve gotta be nutz, coocoo, and just insane to leave anyplace including NYC and move to SF unless you were guaranteed something between $150k-$200k, and HUGE relocation package upwards of $20-$30k. Having done relocates to both coasts I’m pretty familiar with what it takes at this point.
Hmm…

Saffer refutes this with $75-$100K. Boo.

NYC is more expensive than SF, but both are possible on far less than $150k, depending on the size of your household. $20k relocation is pretty unrealistic in my experience. A few thousand, yes, but not tens of thousands.
