Im moving to New York because it has the rough environment i need. Some people process things differently. I can't be in a slow environment where the grocery store is also the gas station. I KNOW for a fact that I'm lazy and i know if i surround myself with the slow paced environment of kansas city i will not go anywhere. Not just to live but I'm going to NYC because the schools have what i want. So its either NY or freaking London. KC doesn't have what i want double checked, triple checked quadripple checked. Life sucks I know. And moving to new york in the fast paced, hardcore world will push me to get OFF MY LAZY BUTT AND DO SOMETHING!!!!!
Come check it out.

Now you have full blown neighborhoods of ego junkies with agenda's. I say it's poison. The hipster's don't bother me that much, the WASPy trust fund babies who were spoon fed through life are the worst.

OP, look at how you're getting shredded over the web. You think NYC's going to be better for you when you physically get here? And you have the nerve to diss a DSNY employee. Common man....get it together. This city would crumble if it weren't for those guys/gals and I'm sure the same can be said for Kansas City.
NYC's business is business. So all landlords and co-ops care for is PROVE of INCOME and ASSETS. They care nothing about where you were born.

Employers just care about your credentials, especially when going out for professional jobs. No one cares about where you were born.

But you know this very well. You're just being hateful and JEALOUS.

NYC is the business capital of the US and the US is world's dominant CAPITALIST country. What do you expect?

For your information, I come from a humble upbringing - my dad was a Vietnam vet who later worked for the MTA, so it irks me when idiot spoon-fed waspy types come over here thinking that these blue collar jobs are idiot jobs, but meanwhile they all live bunched up in one apartment while they do stupid work like display paper cups for a living... and call it ART! LOL LOL LOL
But you would be signing a different tune if rent stabilization ever ends. Who knows what will happen in a few years. What if one day the Republicans are able to push through income verification as a condition to keep rent stabilized status? Don't get too cocky my dear...........

I strongly agree with your post...👍...Very good point...👆...things can happen. Rent stabilization is not 100% guaranteed.
Like owning your own home...🏡... A smart person with good income would invest in a home...🏠... That's the smart
way to go.

Agreed. Investing in a home is smart not only for you but towards any children or young people you might have in your family.

Letting you life be taken over and held hostage by a rent stabilized apartment is ridiculous. It might make sense for you to move elsewhere, but you won't want to because of a rent stabilized apartment. This is why one should very cautiously accept help from the government (including regulation of rents) because you may end up letting them control you.

I have known people who could have purchased a home but were so obsessed with a rent stabilized unit they didn't want to (when rent stabilization in it's current form may not be here in 4 years). It's always possible that the Republicans may manage to insert income verification.

Exactly, I'm not trying to put any one down, but people at times think they are getting over on the government...😎.
When in fact their not especially if you are getting an education..🎓.. to better your self.Which means a person should.
Be saving as much money..💰..as they can to secure the future. People are not going to stay young for ever and need
To look out for their self and their family if they have one. Do not depend on help if you don't really need it...👎.

That's greed, sooner or later the government..😎..will catch up. Might even make you pay back some of that money..😭.
I believe in savings, vacations..👙👓👒.. fine but I would make sure my account is fat first...💰.. This is just an advice.
Either take it..😄..or leave it..😩..no sweat on me...😋.

You resort to personal attacks to avoid a painful truth.

NYC is about business and no business person (landlord, retailer, real estate agent, employer) cares about where you were born. They are about whether you have enough money to pay your real estate related bills and other costs, or whether you have the credentials and experience to qualify for a good job.
