30k is more than enough to live a good life.
Not in New York, noob.
I stand by my statement.
It's doable, but I would still live in Jersey. I could get by on 30k.
Well then what you expect out of life and what I do are two different levels. Fair enough guys, point taken.
It's good for now. I mean, how much worse can it get? 70k is enough to live in downtown Jersey City where New Yorkers are fucking flooding. Luxury apartments are $3k cheaper and are just as spacy. So $2,500 a month for a two-bedroom luxury apartment will go for $35k a year. Of course, that's with a spouse making the same (if not more, I am hypothetically speaking if my current girlfriend, who is becoming a nurse, and I live together) and 0-1 children.
To me, that's fine. Of course I'm tryingto aim higher, but one step at a time. I can't rush being an editor at GQ or a reporter for the New York Times.
Also, I'm making $35 an article right now. That shit isn't even enough to eat for a week. If it weren't such a shit job where my life is actually in danger, I'd take it.
Not really. Maybe if you don't mind being at the mercy of a failing medical system in the case of emergencies, missing out on a lot of nice luxuries in life such as really good food and comfortable, clean accommodations and, more importantly, don't ever want kids (which are expensive).Quote:

LOL, maybe I'm the only one laughing, but you aren't 1/2 the man you say you are. I can't wait to meet you so I can see what you are really about. Oh yeah, I have got a spare guitar, let's see how you do.
I'm not trying to be a dick, but there is fronting, and then there is FRONTING.
