Only rich in stocks. Salaries are high for sure but probably not enough to be rich by Bay Area standards

Sure, but by pretty much any other standard? Over $170k USD puts you in the top 10% income earners globally. If you work at this wage point for 3-5 years and then move somewhere (almost anywhere globally or in the US), you can afford a comfortable life and probably work 2-3 days a week for decades if you choose.

This is nothing but greed.
