Sage Arik Mason, 28, is an associate lawyer at a top tier corporate law firm who earns $225,000 a year.
Yet he’s been living in his mother’s rent-stabilized East Harlem apartment since he graduated from law school last year, partly because he has $75,000 in student debt.
“You shouldn’t have to be a doctor, a lawyer or an investment banker to survive in New York,” Mr. Mason said.
The two-bedroom that his mother moved into in 2001, he said, has given their family a “foundation of security” financially.
He likes Mr. Mamdani’s ambitions to create hundreds of thousands more affordable housing units to help low-income families like his own.
Mr. Mason acknowledged that financing such policies through higher taxes on corporations and the wealthiest 1 percent of New Yorkers might drive some wealthy individuals and businesses out of the city. But he thinks most will stay. “New York City is just a place to be and to go anywhere else is going to be a loss,” he said. |

Date: September 25th, 2025 1:20 PM Author: AZNgirl Charging AZNman $100k to Say Hi To Her A correction was made on Sept. 21, 2025: An earlier version of this article misspelled the surname of a 26-year-old IBM consultant who earns $137,000 a year. She is Ananya Ramachandran, not Ramachandra. The error was repeated in a picture caption. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5779891&forum_id=2).#49302430) |
