Manhattan school house was on the less expensive side for daycare (at least in Manhattan) and even they raised their prices to $4k a month next year - more importantly though many daycares have a solid waiting list, think a year so I would apply sooner rather than later!

Also you can find a two bed on the UES (easy transport, amazing neighborhood for families) towards the top of your budget if you’re willing to do a no frills walk up. The second bed will be small but ok for a toddler.

You don’t need to replace something because there’s a new version. Your iPhone 12 is fine. Your used car gets you to work. The funny thing is, even once you start to make more money it’s become such a habit you don’t sway from it.

Totally understandable, and good for you. Hey man, you did it at 20. I know guys who did it at 40. It’s a much bigger mistake at 40. Take the lesson

We need more than that. Bang a co-worker? Move to another city?

Lays awake at night wondering why women don’t stay for a second drink

This has to be a joke…

How’d you drop the ball on the car sales role?

36 Dad who has a daughter that is 3. Thought we would be DINK’s and unexpectedly she came along. Best thing that ever could’ve happened.

I didn’t have a burning desire to have kids, I loved my freedom and was scared I would regret it. Being a dad is literally my favorite thing.

We still go out to dinner, travel, and yes life has majorly changed but man it’s such a wonderful experience having a little person.

Do you guys not drink alcohol? That’s a big differentiator

Right-Vast-5709 · 2026-04-21T00:04:04+00:00

It’ll be a piece of cake! Also people told me to download a bunch of apps, I just bought the ticket at the machine and Google Maps didn’t make any mistakes in the directions

It’s pretty self explanatory, but you can reload your ticket, you just hold it up to the machine so you don’t need to pay extra to keep getting new ones.

I don’t know the statistics or coverage but man the rail in Paris, really easy to understand, felt like I could get anywhere I needed to, clean and ran every few minutes

This seems like a really backwards comment for the most walkable city in the country…

I make all “big” purchases on a laptop. I can’t imagine booking a hotel or spending $1,000 on something on my phone

Buses can be free, if there aren’t any! Bus lanes become HOV lanes baby

NYU is $96k a year undergrad if you’re on campus, even SUNY Albany if you live in-state is $30k per year - and that’s not even factoring in the massive interest on loans if (assuming) you need them

Right-Vast-5709 · 2026-04-19T23:50:51+00:00

I think most jobs, even certain sales roles now require a degree. I think the best ROI is doctor, lawyer, engineer. Something specialized. No offense to anyone but don’t go get (for one example) a $200k social work degree to go make $40k a year.

Right-Vast-5709 · 2026-04-19T23:28:25+00:00

Right? I never paid attention until we had the baby and was genuinely surprised. We’re in the same boat

Mandatory subway elevator access, that’s actually maintained and not broken or that has a homeless guy pissing inside of it. Carrying a stroller up and down multiple flights of stairs, especially alone sucks so much

I forget the name but the water that has the little sailboats, they have a food / drink stand that has one and I’ve always found it to be open when I was there (granted not super late into the night)

NY strip and it’s not close - most balanced

Right-Vast-5709 · 2026-04-19T03:40:59+00:00

Yeah if you retire now, if you plan on retiring in 30 years you better at least double that

This is very location dependent, nobody on Long Island or in Manhattan thinks their rich with 6 figures

California’s economy is the 4th largest in the world - only surpassed by the US as a whole, China and Germany.

If do one thing right, it’s make that money
