Any one who lives in NYC knows it is expensive. The problem with this is that it has killed my dream of how sweet I thought life would be with a steady income. Sadly, most of that income is spent on just living! Here are the top 5 tips and realizations to survive in NYC:
5- Toilet paper= expensive. Go ahead and just grab some toilet paper from your place of work and or a horrible dive bar. Not only is it usually half a roll, but shitty quality as well- Cost: Free!
4- Realizing that eating Ramen in college was not only filling, but economical and you have now stocked your apt with Cup-O-Noodles. Cost: $2 for 3 cups
3- While paying $90 a month seems fantastic to join a gym, f-that, you find the combo of eating your salted noodle soup and taking out the garbage from your 5 story walk up keeps you in shape: Cost: Free!
2- Birthdays and special events are always hard to get around. Presents for friends and family members are just expected in a lot of cases. Solution? Office supplies. Outfitting your Mom's stocking with pencils and your co-workers business cards will warm the heart. Trust me. A mothers love is a beautiful thing. She will understand. Cost: Free, unless you get fired.
1- When going out to beer gardens, bars with a 100 beers on tap, and of course the ever popular mixed drink, you find yourself constantly ordering good old PBR! Thank god for the Midwest and their cheap delicious beer. I mean, it didn't win the blue ribbon for nothing. Cost: $2-$3 a can
