Got an offer, not from MFH, don't know how to evaluate it. How much do I need to ball in MFH?

with taxes and retarded rent, how do people have a reasonable lifestyle making less than 80k up there?

$20k: Live in Sunset Park in Brooklyn, a Hispanic neighborhood with roommates. Don't go out unless to a house party. Wear Old Navy.

$40k: Live in Harlem with a roommate in a two bedroom. Don't go out much, but still hit up happy hour from time to time. Wear Gap.

$60k: Live in the East Village in a shoebox studio or in a smallish two bedroom with a roommate. Go out on weekends and to happy hour. Cook at home a lot. Wear Banana Republic.

$80k: Live in the Village or LES, Upper East side in your own larger studio (not a shoebox, but not much larger) or in a small one bedroom (UES). Go out on weekends and have a good time. Not so worried about what you spend, but no bottle service.

$100k: Have a smallish 1-bedroom in the Village or a studio in SoHo. Go out when you want, but don't ball. Eat well. Wear Polo shirts and nice shoes.

$120k: Have a one bedroom to yourself in a nice part of MFH. Or a largish place on the UES. Go out anytime, but don't ball. Not worried about money, but are not stacking cash. Wear upper scale clothes.

$150k - $300k: Have a nice two bedroom to yourself in MFH with nice furnishings and nice clothes. Nothing top of the line, but you live well and go on vacation every 6 months (or at least could afford to).

Remember that few people own a car in the city, this saves you a ton that can go toward other expenses. And living with a GF can cut way back on the above if she has a jerb...

seems pretty accurate thumbnail sketch. Replace Sunset Park with The Bronx and you have it a little better in terms of disposable income and english speaking people living around you.

40k, single, live in an outer boro, do fine.

MFH? add at least 10k to live like a non-savage.

I am talking about balling, just normal everyday living for a 25 year old.

Live well? 80+ and more like six figures.

all of the above assumes one bedroom, no roommates and not walking to work.

Or, just do Hoboken/Jersey City.
