  • "Babe. I got this spot."
    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.

    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.

      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??
