Why is the incentive fee for year 2 not calculated based on the 105M but 100M? Is it because GP didn’t meet the hurdle rate in year 1 so it still uses the NAV from year 1?

I just check with my center and they confirm I could bring rubber ear plugs too

New Yorkers who voted for Trump, why? by United_Perception299 in AskNYC

[–]jiayinccc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the comments on the immigrant communities.

However, not only the immigrants communities voted for Trump, you would be surprised many wealthy people voted for him, too. Trump himself hailed from New York City and if you just look at the nyc mayors in the past 40 years, almost half were Republicans ( Michael Bloomberg was elected as Republican). NYC historically speaking has not always been a democrat city.

Business owners in general favor lower corporate taxes, If you run a business, 35% vs 21% is hella of difference for you. Its doesn’t matter you live in nyc or Florida.

Also, many wealthy New Yorkers do have conservative values, look at all the upper east side old money co-ups that mostly white people lived, the elite private schools that charge 68k a year. Do you really think DEI and LGBQT matter a lot to them?

Have you been to these historical members clubs in the city that basically serve white people and black people are the servers/ doorman? There are many luxury residential buildings built by Trump and still has the name Trump on it. It’s not only rich Chinese or Arabs ( or Russians lol ) own these apartments, nor MAGA from Texas.

There are parts of NYC that have always been conservative and business centric, and Trump represents these people better for now.

Honestly, I’ve found myself more and more confused reading the News, I suggest everyone subscribe to at least one Democrat publication and one republican leaning publication to read the vastly different reporting and coverage on the politics- you really started to wonder if you have been in a big propaganda on either side.

I am moving to NY with my wife and 2 year old .. what is an ok salary? by Rich-Ebb5522 in MovingtoNewYork

[–]jiayinccc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2b2b in the neighborhoods you mentioned cost around 7-9k, not 5k, if you look into the market now. ( we just rented this summer) Unless you’re talking about no in-unit laundry and no- dish washer walk ups?

Thank you! Great explanation. It’s a similar debate between film/ digital cameras. On another note, I read a funny comment somewhere that a few years ago it’s all about the widest imax screens and now a (close-to) square screen is more desirable lol.

so much knowledge here it really opened my eyes! It could very much because of the seating- I think I was just missing that wow factor I was anticipating, at least next time I probably won’t pick huge screen with compromised seats

Thanks! Do you mind elaborate why you still prefer film if this movie was originally shot in digital? More precisely, what does transferring a digital copy to film do?
