You can live a very good life in Manhattan for that money.
Great but was that the discussion ? i said what makes you RICH? aaand you'd be limiting your spending especially if you have more than one kid. Far from ballin' As your income grows your expenses grow. I doubt you'd stay in the same place.
Rich, no way, good life, yes for sure. I think the convo kind of took a twist on the forum from being Rich to living a good life. I could take my wife, add a kid, get two monthly parking leases and live a good life in a Manhattan apartment for $250k a year for sure. I would NOT be rich though.
$5k a month for rent = $60k a year.
$1k a month for parking leases = $12k a year.
Everything else is pretty much the same costs as any other city. The only exceptions being in Manhattan you might pay some tolls if you are going back and forth to Jersey a lot and food might be 10% more expensive.
So $250k - $75K still leaves $175K - $100K for taxes still leaves you $75k a year to live on after rent and parking are paid. I could live very nice on $75k take home a year after rent and parking.
But no, I would not be Rich.
I was a Little League superstar, don't hate.
