In Worth It: Lifestyle Season 2, a spin off of BuzzFeed’s hit series Worth It, host Steven Lim and his buddies embark on a new adventure, setting out to try different experiences at three different price points: affordable, middle tier, and luxury--from airplane seats to cars to videos games. At the end of the episode, the gang decides which experience is the most “worth it” at its given price.

I looked at the $40,000 a month and I was in debt
Jamie Wells damn
Lol just the number
Same, that’s literally more than I make in a year. 😂😂
“You don’t need a car, you’re in Manhattan” ... this guy’s good...
Noice
Why? Taxi is free in Manhattan?
RAVIRAJSINH MAKWANA no, bc the traffic is so bad that it’s faster walking or taking the subway (in Manhattan anyway)
@@ravirajsinhmakwana imagine that would be amazing
@@keiwasu not true. It’s the fact that everything is really close to ur house so you’re better off using an electric skateboard or bike
If you can afford $40,000 a month for rent why not just buy a home already
I’m Bored if you don’t want the excess space, it’s small enough to deal with
Buying only makes sense if you know that you'll be staying very long term
Rich people that are probably in NYC for work that won’t be there for long
Because that apartment is SEXY
@@lnhart7157 You could also rent it out for more than your mortgage + insurance/fees and have a property that pays for itself.
the real question is how the Russo’s from Wizards or Waverly Place afforded to live in Tribeca and own a deli that didn’t get that much business...
Well I mean they were wizards ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
three floors as well
Bro stop ruining my childhood.
Magic....
Tribeca has not always been expensive as it is today.
It's sad that 1700 is cheap rent 😂😂😂😂
Jaleel Thompson true, and the worst part is that I did find that cheap because a 3 bedroom apartment in Queens, NY is like $2500(where I live) 😞
Geralyn Mercado same here
Geralyn Mercado Honestly it's not that bad. Dad's paying 1k less for a 3 bedroom house in the East Bay. It's not city or anything either. For a thousand more your saying I can live in the Queens, NY?
Dude, I pay like $1,500 for a 200 foot apartment in Manhattan. ALL THE FUCKING APARTMENTS ARE EXPENSIVE.
Jaleel Thompson 1700 is being broke here
I honestly just used this video for sim house inspiration
Reagan R upload it and slide your username here
Honestly me too
Reagan R omg relatable 😂
SAME
Reagan R omg same
that went 1700 to 24k reallll quick hahaha
This chick is paying $1,700 a month for a dorm room, faaaaaaaaawk that.
That giant gap in her front door would drive me crazy!
MyPartnasAndMe 😂 not the dorm room
MyPartnasAndMe lmao 😂 right
😂😂
My actual dorm room is scarily close to that price
"You don't need a car, you're in Manhattan. Sell the car, take the apartment."
... For one month.... ._.
thank god the apartment wasnt covered in truffles and caviar
hghh you bet.
don't forget the gold leaf
Gold leaf would've been cool tho
Lol I get it
hghh don't forget the edible gold
For people complaining about apartment cost, NY generally has better, and more, jobs, it’s a big city, people don’t move there for cheap housing. Sure, apartments are expensive, but you make more too.
Yeah, people don't realize that your day is also dependent on where you live
Rising Embers Gaming true ,but 1,700$ for a studio is crazy for any where.24k and 40k is deff out the question . That's 288k or 480k I need acres for that 😂
Yea but why not just get a similar job in a city where it wont cost $1700 lol my city has a lot of jobs and a good economy and is half the price for a studio, thats insane
Jubilee Gonzalez HALF the price 😳where are you from ?The thing about being born and raised in NYC,is that your used to a faster pace.I have been to other cities and it's a big transition to how slow and a lot of times boring it is .I like the fact that I don't have to drive if I simply ran out of milk ,it's a store on the corner.
Dude...people don't make that much money there. Even most data scientists at a good tech company make 150K to 200K. Even at that salary, renting a 1700 apartment is a lot.
anyone else here in 2020 binge watching these while dodging the corona virus?
🙋 me
Watching it... finished the original Worth It, going to Worth It UK after...also binged the Try Guys and BuzzFeed Unsolved lol
@@aprilchoate8778 Wow almost exactly the same as me! I love the Try Guys. Also been watching some of Watcher.
@@harmonierosenboom4991 Haven't seen that yet...but I love Shane and Ryan... I'm gonna check it out
How u doimg
Buzzfeed you should do ocean cruises. Like at $800, $4000 and $20,000 price points.
Werelion2367 a For real
Werelion2367 my cruise was 13,000
Not including plane tickets
Werelion2367 but that would kinda take a long time but its a good idea
Did you know there's a cruise which you stay for over 125 days which the cost is I think 100,000+ dollars.
Lance Graham keyboard warrior 🚨
Even the 1,700$ is expensive 😂
bruh in my area we can get a full floor w/ central heating for 1100 a month
I can rent a newly built 3,500 sq ft house with 5bdrms, 3 ba with a swimming pool for that where I live, also in a gated community. NY is overrated and over crowded imo lol
lprdgds if you move to the city you never go back I’m telling you....
@@benjiboi1633 I'm originally from Detroit and have been to NY 5 times. I have Jamaican family in Jamaica Queens and the Bronx. I've visited Manhattan, SoHo, Times Square and so on. NY is my least favorite state. The people are rude, the spaces are small and far too crowded. I moved to Arizona and I love it! No snow, low crime, beautiful mountains. I only miss being by water but Cali and Mexico is nearby when I'm feeling nostalgic and the cost of living and ample jobs is icing on the cake. I'm straight on city life lol
@@DiamondEubanks Yea man AZ if awesome
$480,000 to live in that apt for 1 year in NYC, or buy a House for $480,000 in the country equally as nice and luxurious, and own it! I think I'll buy the house instead!
It all depends on people's preferences. I would love to live in a big city, instead of a quiet town.
480,000 is a nice 3/2 in Miami in a ok neighborhood. Forget the country
Or you can buy a house in the city
it doesnt quite work like that when your billion dollar companies office is 4 blocks away ?
I will take the apartment
After 355 years of getting my allowance, I can finally afford...!
the pillows..
Soulless Searcher you get allowance LUCKY
You guys get money?
shank shrek lol no
I felt that through the screen
That was so dramatic
I feel poor now
Cuz you are...
Cuz we are... :')
There's always someone doing much better than you. Also someone doing much worse. Stick in the middle and you're good.
Andrei Piatra Okay
you are
Don't. $1700/month in rent is already ridiculous. You'd need to make more than minimum wage full time in most of the USA just to cover that rent.
Where I live I could get a 3000 sqft 4 bedroom 3 bath HOUSE with a backyard for $1700/month.
and I'm over here looking at 500$ apts thinking im fancy at college....oh boy lol
Jackal Unleashed what college do you go to?
That's worth it!
yea but they aren't so nice. a really nice one here goes for like 800-1000$
Jackal Unleashed Same most apartments in my area are about 600 to 800 but 900 is all inclusive which I think is really fancy lol
900 and our bikes would still get stolen because they wouldn't get a camera for our dumpster...subsequently causing people to steal trash all the time that the rich international kids would throw away before heading home...sorry i had to vent lol
That 20k apartment😍
Definitely my favorite
Astrid Goossens good luck hopefully you will afford it one day
Kevin Yu Mudada
Same the 40k one makes me feel like I don’t belong there
Can we have Ben on more often? He has such a warm and friendly personality!
was expecting edible gold flakes, truffles and caviar
D0KMZ Same
Nope, that's going to cost you an extra 10k a month for a live in chef that needs a budget of 5k a month for food. 😂😂😂😂 and yes, I am making this up.
D0KMZ why stupido No house has that
I want edible gold doors.
heh deb jaek pulers for life.
You should do this again, but with the same type of apartment everytime. Like, a one bedroom apartment, in the same city, at different price points. I think it would give a better comparaison. Cause now you're comparing apples with pears. Similar, but not quite the same.
yes! plus i think it was unfair to compare a place in brooklyn with 2 places in manhattan. I live in manhattan in a smaller place than the girl in brooklyn from the video and my rent is $400 more than hers.
A studio in mid range with similar features to the mid range showed runs about 3,500-4,000 a month in Manhattan.
Me too Amateur Anal. Me too....
They dont realy care about accuracy. This is buzzfeed. Al they want are views.
Depends. I mean, you can incorporate location into your appraisal of the apartment instead of seeing the apartment purely as its internal physical realisation. But it could also be interesting to see the effect of price purely on that material aspect by removing the other variables.
"You don't need a car. You're in Manhattan." Is my new life motto.
BuzzFeed: *$1,700's a cheap apartment.*
Me: *What*
In NYC.
@@Fools_Requiem nope
Kevin in nyc yes
@@seliseishere I know people that live in Staten Island and in Brooklyn that pay less
Its looks like $59 apartement
The fact that I said $1700 for the studio was a great deal shows how long I’ve lived in NYC cause $1700 rent to me is unheard of
Dominique D Tell me about it, I live on 57th street in a studio apartment and my rent is about $2,578 a month. I know it’s a little pricier because of where I live opposed to Brooklyn, but even when I was trying to look for apartments in Brooklyn, I never came across apartments that were that cheap.
I honestly was like "wow that's a great deal" and then she said "my friends think this is a great deal"
The only thing i could gather is that everyone who lives in NY is rich af.
My rent is 240/month. Know my secret? Not living in NYC.
Dominique D do jobs pay more there or something??? Because my house is like 10 times bigger then that apartment and it's $845 a month....
His uncle looks so young. They look more like brothers than uncle and nephew.

a question Taehyung would ask
I could sell my house to live in the best apartment for a month
The $ 24.000 per month was better than the $ 40.000 per month apartment.
I was gonna say this too. The last apartment feels dim and not as modern
@@ptpilario you mean the apartment with more colours and classier looking is dimmer than an all white room? You're funny
Born in raised just 30 minutes shy of NYC, 1700 is actually very decent for any apartment in the city. You can usually find want ads for rooms for 1400 - 1700. Also, have to remember wages in NYC can be significantly higher depending on the field. But i don't think I would ever spend 40K to rent anything.
mexiejew I have a $700 dollar 2 bed, 1 bath NY apartment in Manhattan, so that price isn’t reasonable at all.
Hey ImJazzy sheesh you found a gem! I had to move out of brooklyn to jersey for cheaper rent prices. And when i say cheaper i mean 1150 for a 2br 1ba in the slums.
I mean.. what do machinists make in NYC cuz I doubt I'd make enough to live out there in a two bed
@@jazminemcneil5677 That almost seems fake since people are with roommates are spending more than that in manhanttan

Its official. Ben is the soul mate to Steven in worth it life style. Andrew and Adam are the soul mates to Steven in worth it food though.
"Ben's father is my brother"
why don't you just say I'm ben's uncle
It was already established that he’s Ben’s uncle. I think he was just trying to explain how he’s the uncle. Whether from Ben’s maternal or paternal side
*I’m Bens uncle*
Also i have uncles paternal and maternal who really just married my aunts
I'm Uncle Ben
Win Nie 9-year-old me when I tried to explain to my hairdresser why I said “my dad’s mum” instead of my grandma
I'd prefer the 1,7K over the 20k any day. Much more cozy, down to earth and personal. The 40k was awesome and the interior was tasteful for a change, but probably wiser to buy a place like that than to throw money out the window by just renting it.

When that apartmant was 1,700 a month I thought they were starting off with the most expensive
In Toronto, $1700 a month would get you a 100 square foot basement apartment...

I like all videos with Steven in it, the guy is chill and fun :)

Right! 😆
Why on earth would you spend 40 k on an apartment. Get a nice house in the hamptons with a Mortgage for much much less
Jak3 what they failed to mention that is the mortgage it is VERY RARE for an apt like that in Manhattan and Tribeca esp is just rent-able it has to be a ‘Condo’ or brought and the monthly payment is 40K per month
The jobs are in NYC, not the Hamptons. If you have a job in NYC, you're not living in the Hamptons.
@@Fools_Requiem If you can afford 40k for rent, you probably don't need a job

+Trickz_easy Sure, if you have certain jobs they do. For the average person, you're going to lose.
When the cheapest apartment ($1,700) is still expensive af for you! Looks like I won't be moving to NY any time soon 😂😂
Ishan Ali cost of living is way too high there. For 1700 here you could get a 3 bedroom 2 bath condo or townhome.
Ishan Ali Most jobs actually make more there tho
Ishan Ali for 700 a month you could get a 2 story 1, 000 sqft house here
I rent a 3/2 with a backyard for 1200 and i'm crying. I cannot imagine a studio for 1700 in Brooklin. Not even a very desirable location.

$1700/month mortgage can buy you a McMansion in San Antonio, TX.
Howdy Y'all But how are the amenities and jobs in that area? Sounds great for retirement not so much if I'm looking to leave a high cost of living and settle somewhere cheaper.
Anthony Turner the job market is excellent. We have several corporate headquarters here. Think Rackspace, USAA, RBFCU, Whataburger and others in between. Cost of living is low as well as it is a big city full of suburbs.
Michael Morrison Yeah, you're an idiot
Umm u better have some baller credit bc that ain't stone oak house money
victoria hale you're right but you can find houses in that range in other areas in the north side.
"can we hear your toilet flush" I fucking lost it lmao
Boring adult fact, checking how well a toilet flushes while you're apartment hunting is one of the most important things you have to do. Crappy plumbing is crappy, literally.

FYI: in NYC, you need to make 40x your rent in salary to be considered a good choice for an apartment. So $1,700 monthly rent should equal a salary of at least $68,000 a year. Now you see why people still live with family after they graduate from college or have many roommates to share a place. smh
If it wasn't for subsidized housing, this city would be practically empty----nobody could afford to live here. How much do you think the guy delivering your Chinese take out on a bike makes; can you imagine how he must live??
Russell Crowe like How I met your mother
Well yeah if you want to live in Manhattan. You can live in a different borough or a cheaper city or town in the state.
