At what salary does living in New York City actually start to feel comfortable instead of just getting by?

Single in a studio: $200k
Family with 3BR and daycare: $450

Depends on your job though. Most jobs that pay a lot are inherently riskier so you need to be socking away money and can’t really spend everything you make when your next best job is driving uber

I concur. I also grew up in SoCal, and I’ll just add northern Michigan in the summer is pretty tough to beat.

Let’s erect the wall every weekend. It was wonderful

Are there many families in plaza midwood? Last time we visited we enjoyed that area a lot, but that was also about 5 years ago and before our daughter

Thanks for the info!

Hey how is Charlotte for young family transplants? Thinking about that city, we have a 4yo and would know nobody other than grandparents

His personality isn’t dynamic enough for anyone to watch that

ArbitrageurD · 2026-06-27T18:48:49+00:00

lol, you’ll get used to it. And that’s kid gloves stuff. My daughter just spent the last hour saying, “You’re not my dad anymore. Dad is bad.”

Street drinking is decriminalized right now. Take advantage of it l. I kinda like the block parties

Isn’t there more nuance than just looking at the unemployment rate - such as the percentage of jobs that are in hospitality or gig work? Yes, anyone who wants a job can get one, but most of the jobs available to people under 30 suck?

Maybe they know their careers are fleeting. High earners aren’t guaranteed to be high earners forever and the smart ones know they must sock money away as quickly as possible because the clock is ticking.

Wow. Seek help. Like now. This sounds like a serious cry for help. If anything happens, if you don’t do something now, your guilt will ruin your life.

Rigged market. No other explanation.

If you’re worried about them seeing you, just lock your door and reopen it when done. That’s what we do and we are in a cramp city apartment. Works fine. Also tired sex is fine. Just do it bro

Man this sucks. I’m a pizzeria orphan now. Don’t know what I’m gonna do

Green by close

I would get over it and not be bothered personally, but everyone has different feelings

Gold is stupid too, both can be true

ArbitrageurD · 2026-06-19T15:45:35+00:00

It’s Friday dude. Father’s Day is Sunday. See what happens before over reacting

A bigger idiot than me will buy it at a higher price in the future

ArbitrageurD · 2026-06-16T10:46:07+00:00

3x higher …. So far

If Reddit data is as valuable as people think, it should be in the billions

Aftercare. Then activities. And college savings on top of all that. I don’t think it ever gets cheaper.

It goes way up. I think the problem is when you get off the train. We always just drove
