I was under the (perhaps false) impression that living costs were so much higher in these places as to make saving just as tough as working anywhere else on a lower salary?

If I'm wrong about that I really need to go get an American Visa from somewhere...

I would say the difference is more that people who live in these places mistake their wants for needs at a higher rate than elsewhere. It is not terribly difficult to save in SF. See my other comments in this thread.
