    This was fun to watch as another Personal Finance YT. I used to live in LA, and it ruined me and built me. haha You learn the true meaning of hustling.

    Great content . Tennessee still affordable. I paid off a home in FL . But I am not as young as you guys. My kids who are same age as you guys - I worry for and hope home prices crash so they can afford to buy a home

    I know you just moved to LA but can you eventually do a video comparing LA to San Diego and what you like about both and what you don't like and were you would rather live

      I’ll help you out: San Diego: dirty ass bums who will try to rob you….. Los Angeles: TRAFFIC and more bums, beaches with bums in tents 🏕️ and risk of being robbed, harassed….. There Ya Go.

    It all depends on your income! 7k/m is reasonable if you make 200k !

    My partner and I switched to Mint about a year and a half ago. It's fantastic! He has 4gb/month and I have 10gb/month and I only went over once, but it was only $5 to get a few more gbs of data. It's been really simple and great!

    I've been living in Los Angeles (solo) for about 10 years, and right outside of Downtown for the past 6. I just got priced out of my current place and am on the hunt for something I can afford comfortably, that also allows me to save for my big goals. My ideal price range definitely comes with a lot of compromises that I didn't have to forfeit in my past hunts. Rent here has been extra terrible these past 2-3 years!

    $4200 is a good deal because it barely covers the mortgage, property tax, HOA fees and insurance of a $600K condo, and in downtown LA, $600K is the price of a 1 br/1bath condo. You are getting 2 br/2bath for $4200.

    • @wilternbackstage
      @wilternbackstage Год назад

      Yes and many people miss this point. To have a $4k mortgage/all-in housing payment on a 2+2 in a desirable area you’d have to put about $200k+ down and then pay about 1x the orig cost of the home in interest over the course of the loan. $3200 in a nanny is nuts though. Her and dude must make very good $. Good vid overall

    Thanks for sharing! $4200 for rent in LA isn't unheard of, and from what I know as someone who lives in the Inland Empire, $4000 rent usually gives you a nice, comfortable and safe apartment. Unfortunately rent in SoCal is insanely expensive and most people can't afford that alone. Hopefully something can be done with these rising rent prices soon.

    The rent surprises me a bit since it’s almost comparable to New York. But kudos to both of you for putting the daughter first and getting the quality daycare for her despite the high expense.

    OK for for those of them that are watching the video and saying “ WOW! It’s so expensive to live in LA” well we ain’t in Kansas no more! “ no pun intended to your home city” LA is a world city truly a magnificent landscape. Yes it’s gotten overcrowded in the last 20 years because transplants want to live here to pursue their careers and dreams ect. But if the state and businesses small and big we’re not so greedy LA would be much more affordable for the average family and person.

    On my 1st day to LA, I got tricked into an alley way to clean someone shoes for $20. Next thing you know, I woke up naked with a hooker number written on my forehead. I’m not going to LA again.
    Anyways, great content ❤
