    i spend a little less than 20% of my income(after tax) on my rent. and i think that's pretty fair. especially considering i also save 25% of my income.

    you can spend all your money and have an expensive lifestyle. or be smart and live modestly within the income.

    i think a lot of people say it's so expensive here because the lifestyle they want probably requires more money because there's a huge polarization on income in nyc and you are always surrounded by people with money and you think that's what you want too.

    yes, it'd be nice to live in 2000sq ft tribecca loft. be out in fab restaurant every night. but i am just an ordinary man.
