re: NYC Rental Market Pushed to Breaking Point by Covid shutdown

Wow. How many people that have put in years of work so they can retire aren’t tied down to a job..... you are stupid.... just keep going through life without a job you are “tied down to” and see how that works for ya....... but with your smarts you probably work the drive thru anyway.

You seriously lack reading comprehension.

Once again, a thread where a bunch of people living in Baton Rouge shite on living in one of the greatest cities on the planet. Always makes me laugh.

I can acknowledge, on one the hand, the greatness of NYC while, on gone other hand, recognizing how the manipulated real estate market in hyper-urban areas is a significant risk to the American economy.

It’s called complex opinions on complex issues.

A perfectly valid point. But my comment wasn’t referring to people like you. More so those who say things like “New York is a shithole and full of liberals!” And leave it at that.

The percentage af income people are willing to pay for rent/mortgage just live in a city like NY is dumbfounding to me.

It is not like you are in some specialized field where the job market is constrained to certain areas. You are restaurant employees. Restaurants are going up by the 100s or 1,000s annually in many small to medium sized cities with much lower costs of living. Maybe consider relocating and being able to live with your significant other instead of 5 or 6 random arse people.

Maybe mind your own fricking business and let people live their lives how they see fit?

lmao. there was 6 of them. 1 working.

the other 5 were stacking a band per week for unemployment

that's at least $20k dude. apt costs $4k lol

And as soon as two or three of them lost a job, uh oh....we have a big article about it.
No savings, apparently, no emergency fund, evidently, just what they hope is an unlimited supply of unemployment checks from the government.
