These people are talking about having lots of friends that could get a job anywhere (as in, they're unbelievably awesome). I wish I had a ton of friends like that. Either their standards are lower, or this is the fundamental thing about SV that I miss.

You don't have to be that awesome... generally, if you can create more wealth for a company than they pay you, you can get a job there.
