How Much it Costs Me to Live in New York City..

[@FAHJA17]

"Why do I still live in NYC even though it's so expensive?" Because you're rich, obviously 😂

[@fabrifibraa]

lol ikr

[@von_9]

Can't imagine how much he earns a month.

[@Maryb-j5k]

Exactly… They say one needs $100k annually for just one individual to live there comfortably…

[@presidente8822]

@@Maryb-j5k I think now it's at 120/130k per year. Rent skyrocketed.

[@Maryb-j5k]

@@presidente8822 wow.. true… I know sharing your place with others is a good way of saving a bit, but after living on your own for a while makes it almost impossible to get back to sharing … 🫠🫠🫠

[@winslow_j]

In 3 days, I'll officially hit 1 year of living in this city, and can honestly say that moving here was the best decision I could've made for myself. Growth wise, independence wise, confidence wise, and creatively. Thanks for all the inspiration Brett 🙏🙏 been watching for a few years now

[@Maryb-j5k]

So happy for you! Congrats. Did you have to increase your income when you moved there?

[@winslow_j]

@@Maryb-j5k thank you!! I moved into a room in a 3 bedroom apartment with two other strangers who already lived there haha I stayed there for 6 months until I made a friend and now we live together, so having roommates makes a world of a difference in affordability. Definitely not living like a king, but very very happy to be here

[@Maryb-j5k]

@@winslow_j aww that’s amazing 🙏🏻❤️ thanks for the reply! It’s a dream of mine to live there, but the rent saturation is definitely a factor… Best of luck 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@winslow_j]

@@Maryb-j5k thanks so much! I highly recommend the roommate route if that’s something that you’d be okay with!! There are a handful of websites and apps that you can find someone or people that would be a fit to get you here. It literally made it possible for me to make the dream come true 🙏🏻

[@aarush_luthra]

$300 for a date and $400 for a gym is madness...

[@Sir_Austin_T_Gee]

I can promise you, as someone who travels to a lot of places in the U.S., that you can definitely go on a date for $100 or less and join a gym for $30/month EVERYWHERE. This guy just has a ton of money apparently.

[@CelesteMSun]

I like when you mentioned that your family is here. That’s also why NYC becomes even more incredible :)

[@Axl_axman]

Don't know why but I feel motivated whenever I watch your videos

Do what makes you happy bro 🤞🏾

[@zaninnyc]

It’s all worth it. This city truly makes you the best version of yourself. Glad to see someone who loves as New York as much as I do.

[@giannishen]

Some people say that New York is the center of the universe. It is undoubtedly a city full of vitality and positive energy! If I had money, I would definitely move to New York and meet wonderful people like you every day! Thanks a lot for sharing, really great job! I wish you great success in your tea business! 👍🥰🙏

[@C--A]

New York City isn't even in the top 10 most visited cities globally in 2024! Whereas London (the global city of the world) is the 3rd most visited city globally in 2024!

[@Oracheuety]

I'm super excited that you're starting a tea company!! My wife and child don't get it, but I drink tea on a daily basis. I'm a huge fan of Kumaon white loose leaf! Here on the opposite side, in Seattle, WA, it's a necessity for good mental health!! Thanks for all the wonderful content, we greatly appreciate the travel tips! Can't wait to see more, and buy some tea from you!! Take care, my friend!

[@letsrolloutnyc]

Wow that’s expensive, but nothing can beat living in nyc with the vibes and everything else. You will never get bored in NYC. Great video, Brett 😎

[@md9121]

Brett, I would love to hear how you plan and promote your new tea business, and how you go about networking with others. Also, I really like your videos about how you improve your productivity, and your daily routine in NYC to keep yourself stay disciplined and motivated. Thanks for sharing your videos.

[@СтефанТрифонов-й7т]

I love when he does New York videos

[@ul__boss]

Manhattan meal plan is sooo hilarious 😅😅😅 and actually true !

[@venkat81]

Lived in NYC as a student and totally agree with Conti. It's the best place to live as a single person. Not sure if I can raise a family now without breaking expenses. But I miss the electric vibe minus locos.

[@higregfernandez]

I have the same problem with NYC - it's really hard to leave here once you live here for a while. Amazing city.

[@fooey88]

I said the same about Chicago. Give it 10 years.

[@higregfernandez]

@@fooey88 with all due respect, New York City is not Chicago. But I understand what you mean 👍🏼

[@itsevelinakp]

I went to nyc and stayed there for 3 weeks,I fell in love,it didn’t even feel that overwhelming or all that ,I love the fast pace life and the vibe overall,never felt homesick-I really would love to live there one day IF I could get visa sponsorship tho😭

[@vaibhavpaptan]

Totally agree with you Brett that one should atleast live for a year in New York once in their lifetime...wish to do it someday

[@sibichakaravarthyes2383]

I'm a huge fan of your videos, bro. Love from India. After all other videos, I especially like the New York City videos, bro. Keep rocking, my best wishes for you and your new tea company, Brett bro.....❤️

[@FulfillMyDreams]

You are such an inspiration Brett, btw I'm practicing English Language to be fluent, yk English is very common language to travel HAHAHA, but yeah I am inspired with you and I want to live in NYC too! I loved that NYC has a lot of job opportunities for teenagers like me who want to work.

[@oculosprudentium8486]

and even to move around driving in New York has huge tolls, the gas prices are astronomical, and then the City and State Income Taxes.

[@sovrack134]

"Why I love being rich-...I mean why I LOVE NYC"

[@Maryb-j5k]

Our income tax is even higher than nyc in Toronto canada 😢 also, sales tax is 13% in here while in nyc it’s 8%.

[@ChristheFreelancer]

I’m living in Bali but considering NYC in future. Taxes would be the biggest deterrent for me. Would rather hold on to the money and then you have more to spend on the ‘future wife’ 😉

[@AD777]

Spending over 10k in a month for a living and telling 300 bucks for a date is expensive 😅 I don't understand

[@davidpeat184]

Probably claims his residence as an office for work and claims some of the expenses so it’s lot actually 10k a month.

[@TomBedlammusic]

42 grand a year on rent... Holy shit! I get that isn't even that bad for New York and it's an incredible place but 5 years of that would pay for my house in Scotland outright haha Mental.

I've been to Brooklyn since I was a child to visit my relatives and it's more open than Manhattan. I love nyc but didn't after Covid. Found people to be ruder and uncaring. I'm going back to give it another chance.

[@neonomad1939]

I lived in NYC in the late 90s and what an experience it was, with clubs like Webster Hall.. I think it's now a less safer and much more costly affair.

Hi, future wife here... We can stay in the city as long as we can escape to the country occasionally! 😉

[@tokahontasbusiness9160]

Sir are you freakin nuts? I’m sorry I live in Massachusetts like 15-20 mins away from Boston so In the middle class burbs I guess… lol but I’ve been there before and y’all are basically the same as here but double the cost. I mean you pay $7.69 for a gallon of milk apparently!! I just saw in a video about the laundromats being robbed now. Thankfully the one near me is barely used unless yours is being repaired or something but most homes come with em even apartments. But dude… almost $8 for a gallon of milk?! That’s just nuts to me I legit can’t get over it 😂😂😂 I pay lk a little over $4 for Fairlife milk which I honestly thought was “fancy” milk and not just lactose free lolol but it’s good so I still get it but a regular azz gallon of milk here is $3.99-4 for the “store brand” label stuff and it goes bad in two and a half weeks usually if you’re lucky and if it’s one person that’s a waste of a lot of milk and money dude. Just come to Boston it’s lk there but cheaper and we’re wicked nice lol

[@AnikenSkiwalker]

It looks like he's doing well....think you're missing his points as he's an entrepreneur and has potential business contacts namely Billionaires on his contacts list. Like I tell my sons, don't focus on chasing tail. Attract better ways to earn!

[@C--A]

Boston isn't anything like NYC. Boston isn't one of the famous cities of the world like NYC, London, Paris, Hong Kong etc..

[@ChinaDollTravels]

I love nyc but can’t live there it’s too expensive and busy and I love Florida too much lol 😂 warm and close to theme parks and my family is here but I love seeing your videos you make there

[@valsobe4638]

FL is better:) But it's not much cheaper. The rent for one bedroom apartment in my building in Miami is $3500-$4000, depending on the view, and it's not a high end building. I was surprised to here that his rent in Manhattan is only $3500.

[@TravelingTheWorld1993]

I have visited New York City a couple of times and loved it! I am very familiar with the living cost of living in this wonderful city. I came across a video that stated my $1875 Manhattan apartment. Before even clicking on the video , I knew that there was absolutely zero chance it was possible to be true! So when I watched the video , this individual had a roommate. So it's a one bedroom Manhattan apartment for $3750 a month.

[@RankethLiyanage]

You could watch the cricket T20 Word cup this year in new york

[@davidpeat184]

Imagine complaining about paying 14% taxes 😂😂😂 we pay 20% base rate in the UK. 40% if you earn over £45k a year.

[@valsobe4638]

14% is just the state and city tax in New York. That's on top of federal and payroll tax, that you pay anywhere in US. He didn't mention the other taxes, because everybody pays them, regardless of where they live. If you add all of them it can be more than 50% if u live in NYC. I'm paying about 40% in taxes, and I don't live in NYC
