Like Tahiti, I have to agree with CaptainNJ in this case.
And, like Tahiti, this is somewhat unusual for me.

If you think that mimicking an inner-city type of vocabulary is cool, I have to tell you that--outside of a small group of young wanna-be types--it is not considered to be cool. Everything that we do has the potential to become habitual, and if you persist in writing and speaking this way, it will have some permanence, and that is not good for your employment prospects.

The vast majority of people in this forum are adults, and if you want to be respected by them, you need to use standard English, rather than inner-city talk that we all know is not part of your background.
If it is not part of your background, then why are you suddenly taking on this persona?

...and that stream of information will likely be shut down by the same folks who are being offended by you. There is an old saying, along the lines of...You get as good as you give...or something to that effect.

If you expect others to help you out with information, it behooves you to show them some respect.
Otherwise, you are just a taker.

Trust me...my life will proceed quite nicely, despite your need to descend to inner city talk-mode.
I am quite contented with my life and my prosperity, so...no counseling is needed.

But...let's talk in 5 years or so, and we can compare notes at that time.

The answer is yes, depending on what you're doing and where you're looking. New Jersey isn't some lifeless sphere whose economy has been gobbled up by New York, Philadelphia, and the Lehigh Valley. Obviously, finding a retail job will be much easier than a finance position, but that goes for pretty much anywhere. White-collar professionals are far from absent.
