You can live in the sewers with the Ninja Turtles and Master Splinter. I don't think they'll charge you too much for rent, as long as you pay for the pizzas.

That's a small pay out to move to NY unless its a entry level position in your career path in which you anticipate making much more in the future.

Yea, there's people who live on less. If you dont mind the hood, you can get a cheap 1bdrm or studio.

Dude, no. NY will suck for you if you can barely get by. There are better places to live if the max you can make is $2k a month (how do you earn $24k a year with a college degree anyway? even fashion pr slavery pays like $30k or more).

This is so mean but still makes me laugh. I would not move to NY for that amount of money unless I were pretty much "guaranteed" to do much better in at most a year.
You will be struggling unless you find a room to rent with free wifi.

I agree that 2K/month in current income will not be sufficient to cover current spending. But the OP is 21 years old. Wouldn't it make sense for him to incur debt in his youth, assuming that his income would rise through the future years? It's just a standard "dynamic programming problem."

Of course, he would eventually have to make sure that the future excess of income over spending would be sufficient to service the debt incurred in his youth, and that may be too much to ask of today's myopic economic agents.
