The systems are so weirdly gameable though - I know a number of couples living with their parents for free to save money in very expensive parts of the country - they'll be paid top rates with no expenses vs. someone living in a poorer part of the country to be with family taking a massive paycut.

Others are living in the hubs they always have while renting out flats in cheaper parts of the country as side income.

The endgame is living in the cheapest neighbourhoods in SF/NY/London while working "remote" - the commute being bad in that part of the city doesn't matter anymore.

Maybe we can just show our rent checks for food at the company store.
