This is a true story with some humor.
A professional man (engineer) wanted to rent an apartment in Silicon valley about 10 years ago (1997).
That guy was shocked by the price of $2000 per month for a 2 bedroom apartment in a nice gated community in San Jose.
He said to the rental lady, "Why are the apartments so terribly expensive?"
She hemmed and hawed, and said something like, "Well, you are paying in part for the California lifestyle."
The guy, a foreign speaker of English, says, "How much is it without the California lifestyle, please?"
