I mean in the hypothetical sense of the poll...

I've never heard of a boss paying your rent for you.

It's actually pretty common for businesses to pay for temporary living quarters if they're moving someone to another city or country temoprarily. Sometimes it's a hotel, sometimes, it's an apartment...

And your credit cards and student loans?

Don't get me wrong, I know gals who have people pay for that stuff, but the work ain't exactly uh, legal if you get me...

My first choice would be NY, after that is an equal billing with Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, and DC in that very order IMO

SF, Chicago, and LA are also on my short list but not above the first 6, Boston and Minneapolis are also up there but I would not describe them as 'commonly boosted' IMO
