Can we talk about the friend who swore I should move to Austin for a job, was she right?
My best friend from college pushed me hard to take a $52k offer in Austin back in 2022 and it blew up in 6 months when the startup folded. Now she swears the lesson was just 'wrong place, right advice' but I think sometimes people just want you to join their city, so which one is it?

That "wrong place, right advice" line is doing a lot of heavy lifting for her. Here's the thing nobody's saying: she might not even know her own motive, because people push friends to move near them and then build a whole logic story on top of it after the fact. Ask her straight up if she'd have pushed just as hard for a 52k startup job in a city where she didn't live, and her answer will tell you everything.
