you dont have to ask people who only moved here from someplace else...being born here i go thru the same issues any non-native new yorker.
here is your advise:
get a strong and solid paying job where you will bank at least $1k per week. this is only said as if you can spare a full weeeks paycheck to all or part of your rent you will have no problem surviving in nyc.as far as eating is concerned, i hope you are fit and heallthy as food is located from every country and is on every block.
also try to map out a budget plan fo biills, sex, drugs, music, clothing, transportation, beer, dry clleaning, new gadgets, cell phones, and action figures.
try to keep this between $350-$700 per month.
do you have a place to sleep?
get bussy today in searching for a place to live, as most places in nyc are taken by nights end as the day they are posted...money talks!bribery will get you in an apt for 6 months, or a trust fund can also help you.
why 6 months? why not the long haul?
yes cost of living in nyc is higher than any other place in america, but salaries here, if you are hungry and stubborn enough to stand your ground is very high as well.
be tuff! get strong ankles! and good kicks!
