[@mohuyakhan]

@@Chriistyx3AHHH so excited for you!! ❤️

[@jessicar4288]

I love the last tip! I'm a Queens native and I love being able to step away from busy Manhattan :). NYC is very expensive so good luck to everyone out there trying to move here!

[@mohuyakhan]

yessss, big queens girl here too! I do love many areas in Manhattan, but it's also so hard to let go of the rich culture in the neighboring boroughs 😭

[@kaylaxty]

Yes, PLEASE make a video on how to make friends in nyc or in a big city in general. I’m moving to nyc in less than a week and am a little nervous about making new friends. Your content has been very helpful and comforting. Thank you! 🤍

[@mohuyakhan]

ahhh good luck on your move!! be on the look out for that video ❤️

[@jacksonb_82]

i’m 17 and really want to move to nyc in the next 6-7 years! already saving up wish me luck 🤞

[@mohuyakhan]

[@melissacharles729]

this is so amazingg!! can u compare NYC to other major cities maybe like you and a friend can compare and contrast NYC and DC or NYC and Boston, etc

[@WithLoveK.]

OMG three weeks ago, perfect timing.

[@mohuyakhan]

hi welcome!!!

[@chi2om]

Def need a video on how to make friends in nyc. I move from Texas and have zero connections there. When i interned in the summer, i had to do a lot of things by myself

[@mohuyakhan]

ok yesss!!! i'll make a video on this soon 👀👀

[@gracieefromspaciee3642]

omg Hi I’m moving from texas next week! And crazy coincidence but my name is A Chisolm too😭 just spelled a little different sooo maybe we can be friends once i get there :)

[@chi2om]

@@gracieefromspaciee3642 that's super cute. I'm down

[@sincerelysidne]

love your channel. i’m from california, thinking about making a change! appreciate your insight 😊

[@mohuyakhan]

thank you sm ❤️❤️ this is the year for you

[@ko_grindz]

Thank you so much for making this video. I been in the process of looking for my dream job in New York City. I am born and raised here and rent is so expensive. You made my plan easier for the future thanks a lot

[@mohuyakhan]

i'm so happy to help!!

[@sabrinsefa7281]

this vid was so helpful. thank you . I really wanna move to NYC but with bengali parents, they dont wanna let me go lol. You gave realistic advice tho

[@mohuyakhan]

girl i've been there too!!! let me know if you have any more questions and i'd love to help or make a part 2 💖

[@adrianwebster6923]

In my experience, in building laundry is often poorly maintained, also fellow tenants either dont pick up fast enough or they dump your clothes on the floor if you arent down exactly on time. Many laundromats offer drop service where they eash and fold your laundry. It isnt cheap but if you are saving money on rent in a no laundry building, it may be worth considering. It was the first "luxury" I added once I could afford it.

[@mohuyakhan]

what a beautiful luxury!! would love to do that one day too

[@Thuggintv7]

Thankfully got a spot with no broker fee no security fee just flat out 1700

[@mohuyakhan]

congrats!!

[@djddirty]

The "3 pay subs" sucks for freelancers. Some property owners or real estate agents are turned of buy us. Also the up hair do 👌

[@mohuyakhan]

tell me about it 😭😭😭 it was rough af

[@chi2om]

I move there in August for my corporate job post grad school. Luckily i have no student loans or debt in general. Unfortunately, i also have no credit history. No clue what to do about that. Plus i want to move in before i start working. So i can't provide paystubs. Ugh it's mess alright

[@mohuyakhan]

it's so rough without all that. look into subletting apartments on facebook groups until you can get some more history :)

[@ishratjahan2983]

If possible could you please make a video about how you invest your money? Like 401k, Roth IRA, etc?

[@mohuyakhan]

i'd love to! it's already on my list for video topics for this year :)

[@Unknown-us1fc]

I know it’s a bit out of pocket for me to ask, but due to household circumstances I’m planning a move to NYC at the end of February-at 18, and if you know any cheaper landlords with rentals, I would be so grateful if we could message about it 😭

[@gracieefromspaciee3642]

What about using my parents as a guarantor. Do you think that’s helpful for the process? Or even them co-signing with me?

[@mohuyakhan]

yup they can co-sign for you!

[@Jibril_Abdulkadir]

Just like you said I would suggest anyone moving save up a lot before lol 😂 it’s expensive anywhere but especially nyc

[@mohuyakhan]

hahahah that's why i started working from age 15 😭😭😭
