Quick answer because I am not going to go back and forth with you.
I grew up in The Bronx and lived in Manhattan and I was street smart.
It didn't help me though, I still got shot.
first where did u get shot, address or cross st. section or neighborhood...are u a white guy that just wander to the pj's on harlem on a friday nite having no business doing there, then u are asking to be shot. and when was this?

well jimbo was comparing how living with the nature and sh*t and how beautiful it is to see the night sky and see animals. well im giving him the pros of living in nyc also. i can see animals in the bronx zoo and sh*t. i can see the night sky and stars when i go out to my 2nd beach home in the long island during the weekend or summer vacation.
it wasn't jim who question me about his market..i know nothing about jims market. it was either mike peterson or someone else who questions me about florida market which i know alot about.
Have you bought 2 beach homes within the last 8 days?
It says here that you were thinking about buying one.

unfortnately no...majority that live in nyc's pj's are colored folks. if u talking about pj's in kansas...then maybe majority is white. u still haven't answer my other questions...when did it occur and where did u get shot? it probably tramautized ur whole life...huh? as for me...i live in east harlem and 4 ppl got killed in front of my building within the last 2 yrs.

If it traumatized me my whole life I don't think I would be where I am now.
Which is definitely not East Harlem.
Weren't you just espousing on the fact that NYC is the safest city yet 4 people got shot in front of your building?
That is more people than have been killed in my county in the last 3 years total.

But you said, "i can see the night sky and stars when i go out to my 2nd beach home in the long island during the weekend or summer vacation."
So you get on people about where they live calling them ****holes and the boondocks yet you lie about having beach house and actually live in East Harlem.
I did alot of work in East Harlem and anyone that lives there should not be telling anyone else that they live in a ****hole.

now...u damn where know nyc is a big place...pj's in the ghetto breeds crime aka harlem, east harlem, south bronx as matter of fact majority of the bronx, bed-stuy, crown height, coney island. these areas are full of pjs...there will always be crime and sh*t..no matter what. but if u talking about rich white neighborhood like u see in the tv shows friends, seinfield aka upper east side, upper west side, central park west, those are million dollar home and neighborhood are safe as it can be.

trust me..the only reason im living in east harlem cuz im living in a rent control building...otherwise i would have left this sh*thole long time ago. i work in the financial sector and i like my bank acct vs urs anytimes of the day. i have enuff money save in the bank to buy 2 places right now...a condo in brooklyn and a beach house. but im waiting cuz the housing market will get worse and prices are dropping by end of this year.
i will take some pix of my condo and my beach home by the end of this year...i guarantee u this.

The internet is a wonderful thing isn't it. You can be what ever you want to be and have as much money as you like.

But you didn't say certain neighborhoods, you said NYC.
But this thread got way off track so I am done here.
