TheCount.com Original: If you’re thinking about joining the tech revolution by moving to Silicon Valley and striking it rich, unless you’re already rich, and are not at all adverse to living in small, confined places, then you might want to think again.

We found this Craigslist rental property in Palo Alto California trending on social media, apparently trending because so many interested people were visiting the ad.

The photo below apparently depicts the spacious kitchen.

If our calculations are correct, the bathroom shares a back wall with a basketball hoop, which could prove a little frightening if someone decided to play a little unannounced one-on-one while you’re trying to handle your morning business.
