Seventh, your posts have taken a massive nosedive. You provide nothing of value to the conversation at hand. It's fine that you have a different opinion, but you fail to express that effectively to create valuable rebuttal.
Lol! I'm flattered you took the time to write that. Here, take some Reps for your trouble.

Familial obligations my ass. So now its Grandma and Grandpa's fault you're stuck here paying what you pay. Way to put it off on them. What a good grandkid you are. If you're "balling" like that as your name suggests, then take them with you and don't complain about how expensive it is here.

Firstly, I've never complained about living in NYC nor how expensive it is. If I do move out of NYC, I'm not moving to NJ or LI. I don't see the value there. I was simply pointing out that familial obligations are very real for some people. Especially those that come from immigrant families.

Our culture(s) oblige us. Do we HAVE to do it? No. Do we feel obligated? Yes. Just because you have no sense of that obligation (for whatever reason; maybe your parents were terrible) , doesn't mean others don't.

Secondly, talking about how expensive NYC is is rich coming from someone who lives here strictly due to a government handout.
If you had any sense of dignity, you'd just keep quiet about it.

All 3 of my grandparents are pushing 90. One of them had cancer surgery right before COVID and developed complications. We were in and out of hospitals all during COVID in 2020. Emergency rooms and hospitals weren't a fun place during COVID. I can assure you.

When we're growing up my grandparents picked us up from school fed us dinner, and took us to parks while my parents were working. During early childhood I spent just as much time with my grandparents as I did with my parents (we lived on the same block).

It's clear that you have no honor or dignity but that doesn't mean that everyone is as nihilistic as you.

Meh, go work for Hallmark and make cards

All you do is complain about stuff, go change your life instead of coming on here to beef with the poors, you make all this money yet you have nothing better to do

You come off as a sad person that projects their issues unto others.

The only thing I complain about in NYC is the parasitic trash element that live in this city for free and not only don't contribute anything but actually effect it in a negative way.

They do that because inside they're deeply unhappy and miserable people.

It's the same ghetto element that's afraid of leaving NYC because theyre afraid of not making it anywhere else without all of the government support.

So move where there's less parasites if thats how you feel then. What else do you want ppl to tell you? You're the one with the complaints.
