Moving to sf (San Jose, Stockton, Pasadena: how much, luxury, school)

[Filipino/Photographer]

I'm full Filipino, I'm a well paid photographer that barely works, people don't need to see my pictures for me to get paid, I'm Jordan on the court, I rarely club but I love it, I want to live in luxury but I need to know what area. I been in LA for years but I'm from Stockton, I make $2600.00 monthly and plan to pick up a part time, LA still has me feeling like race, religion, and politics don't matter lol, mean people are cool but I don't want to see them everyday (only when I shop), ummm, I want to live ina exclusive and out the way place but close to a nice grocery store, I'm not gay, I seem like a big player but I'm not, I plan to go back to school after I get used to surviving, and granite and high ceilings is key.

I wrote that so you SF pros can tell me whassup. I'm familiar with SF it's just that I know living there is a totally different story. I need parking. I love Embarcadero. I shop on Haight and Market. I club on Broadway. Beach close would be cool again. I love Japanese food and The Cheesecake Factory. I used to live in Pasadena because I got tired of living in Hollywood traffic. I need to be able to take women of opulence to my place without them worrying about there car being broken into lol. I need cool neighbors. 24 hour fitness is an important part of my life. San Jose three times a week. I'm not spoiled, I work for it. 40 Days and 40 Nights movie perpectives are cool lol. And ummmm... that's all.

I know, information overload. Iont care. Please help and post opinions and perspectives. I know I need to just go in person and spend the day out there but this is what I'm doing right now.

I did a lil research on Sunset Richmond but I feel like it's a bit far from where I'm used to going but so what. How do you guys feel about Sunset? North Beach seems cool. Tenderloin seems bad. School would be on Market in the far future. Ok there. Please give me helpful information. Please.

Slow your roll and stop showing off, dude. Anyway, 2600/mo won't go too far. Hope you like roommates.

For starters, if you want some positive responses, you shouldn't come across so cocky...especially if you're only making $2600/month! You can't possibly think that barely making over $31k/year is actually going to get you into an "exclusive" area in SF do you?? Being single and making $100k/year will barely get you into a high-end part of SF!

I'm sure a lot of people chuckled reading your thread. $2600/month is hardly "baller" status. Personally I don't give a s*** how much people make...to each their own. However, if you're going to act cocky about how much money you make when you really don't make much, you're going to be get called out and look dumb.

LOL hilarious, so you only make $2600 per month but you're the Jordan of photography? You will not find what you want in SF with that pay. Granite and High Ceilings? HA
