Crazy... no job, no money, but going to NYC!!!
Mod cut: lanugageMy cousin has no job, no money, and no place to live. She decided to buy a one way ticket to NYC. She has no idea what she's going to do once she arrives. I told her she'd end up sleeping on a bench and hungry.
I think she is nuts! Would you do it?

Has she even been there before? That's insane.
She'll be back from wherever she came from. Or dead.

Even those that don't think a move through come with atleast enough to stay in a cheap hotel/motel or have a friends couch to sleep on. She is going HOBO style. Is she trying to sleep on trains and benches and go to job interviews without a weeks worth of showers?

I think she's nuts. I have no idea what her plan is, sounds like she doesn't have one. She said that she has a one way bus ticket, and $200. She has no family there, I'm not sure if she knows anyone. I'm not scared of a challenge, but that is one that I'd not take on!!!

Bad idea unless she's super hot or sociable.

I think that's great! You only live once. She will have a story to tell her grandchildren. |

There's a lot missing here.... How old is she? Does she have any work skills? Has she done things like this before? Does she have an ounce of street smarts? What do her parents and/or siblings think?
She's not going to get far on $200 in NYC. Where does she plan on staying? Does she have friends here? What is her plan?
