Silicon Valley near San Jose with a starting salary around 130k.
That’s not enough money to live in Cali.
I love how idiots on here who likely never been out of their home state know what's enough to live another state. For a single guy making 130k is more than enough. You could easily save 40-50k if you live a moderate life style. I suggest you take that job, stay there a couple years, save your money then move back.

No chance. City and state taxes will be around 35%. That leaves OP with $85k. Let's say he spends $2,500 per month just on housing. He is now down to $4,500 per month take home. Then you've got food, insurance, student loans, car payment, extraneous spending. He won't be starving, but he sure as shite aint saving $40-50k
