100% - I went to Cal, however after spending time in finland I would've been equally happy going to University of Helsinki (which costs pennies on the dollar compared to here), or a myriad of other schools - TU Delft, ATH Zurich, University of Oslo, etc. We're definitely not getting our money's worth here in the bay area anymore, and amongst the severe rise in gun violence, theft, extreme politics - my wife and I are trying to plan the next 20-30 years in places with a strong education system and safety profile like Dubai, Helsinki, etc.
