The funny thing is....... NYC can hold their own against Chicago and LA combined.

Mhmm, and southerns and west coasters don't.. Ok and the sky is red, no green, no apple pie!

I'm not being egotistic. I've actually made a thread a while back venting my feelings toward NYC/NNJ arrogance I see on these forums.
And you can't sit here and tell me NYC isn't a more powerful city. Jobs pay higher in NYC than anywhere else in the nation, I can't even imagine how much money is stashed on Wall st., and the price tag to live in NYC (Manhattan) is ridiculously higher than Chi/LA. But why use logic?!

I never said LA/CHI isn't powerful (but you assumed I did for whatever annoying reason)... NYC is overall just the stronger city in this make believe comparison.

And you posting against what I said doesn't make your statements true, either.

Again, it's whatever. I don't care what ignorant CD people think. Ciao!

You do not have to believe my statements if you do not want to, but at least mine have some basis, you simply pulled your statement out of your ***, ironically at a time when California may go bankrupt.

You think I am ignorant? And yet the only thing you can say when you are stumped is "whatever." I got smacked if I said "whatever" to my parents. Talk like a man, not a 13 year old girl.

People can prattle off as many statistics and numbers as they want. At the end of the day, I'd pay twice as much to live in Los Angeles as I would in New York, even if their GDP sucks or their bulidings aren't as tall.

LOL!

Well, there's only one way to answer a post like this: Whatever!

I'll second this. You couldn't pay me enough to live in NYC over LA.

Actually they don't, several metro areas have a higher median income than NYC, much higher actually. The SF Bay Area and Washington DC area being the two areas with the highest median household income in the nation.

True, true. I knew that, but I was kind of referring to Manhattan since numerous Manhattan zip codes are the wealthiest in the nation 100 wealthiest cities (according to zip code) in the United States

No, they do. A person would need to look at average salary per person, not household.
