What I Spend In a Week as a 26 Year Old in NYC

[@mdnnka3563]

Enjoy life, girl! Many of us can't afford that lifestyle or are stuck at work all day and completely wiped out in the evenings and all we can do is watch YT 😅😂

[@Annie-ho4mq]

You just described my life perfectly

[@jayheh]

Why is this so accurate 🙈

[@ShaiziKhan-gw7fb]

Lots of love from india 🇮🇳 ♥

[@chocktalk]

you do realize her youtube money pays for all the food and content and she works as well

[@czpavli]

So... Just do something about it.

[@SiliaAspa]

I think I told you before but I love how clear you are with money! I am sick and tired of all the ppl who never say how expensive or cheap their day to day life is... with what you earn to what you spend I really love the reality of your videos... I am proud of you and that's the reason so many ppl following you because you are the friend we all want to have... greetings from Hamburg!!!

[@js-de8vh]

300K a year means nothing to expensive city that she doesn’t drive in

[@SiliaAspa]

@@js-de8vh oh ok! so you make more?

[@MrNilsiboy94]

Hey, Im from Hamburg as well :) Our City seems downright cheap now after watching this. Almost 9$ for a small cup of ice cream is wild lol. That said, Taylor is so right with what she said in the end and it did look really damn good so why the hell not.

[@KarinaSwan]

That's because generally it's considered impolite to discuss such things especially with strangers and not everyone is comfortable with it as well. It's always about people trying to hide things, not so much about being real, as it is a preference for some. Taylor wants to create videos about financial details so for her it might be a neutral subject that she feels comfortable discussing.

[@TilakDas-y8v]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@GeorgeMathias1]

The way that you showed your expense was awesome. The combination of traveling, eating out, making your own food and showing us the breakup is one of the most creative video ever. I watch many videos but none where like yours. Keep it up.❤

[@lucifermorningstar9241]

as an investment banker, I genuinely envy this life style, work doesn't leave much time for exploring the city what so ever, but hey love to see someone else enjoying their life, and motivating people to be better everyday, you are amazing Taylor!!!

[@shesgonestella]

I feel this so hard! I just moved here from the UK after watching these types of videos for years and it's kind of a double edged sword because a well-paying job in finance is what enabled me to get a visa and thats amazing. but then.. ok when I do actually EXPERIENCE new york..

[@RickJamesMemorialKitchen]

No need to envy. It’s just not actionable for most people. So rare for someone to be smart enough to go to Ivy, but attractive enough to be a model, and then brave enough to be an entrepreneur in their early 20s. Less of a blueprint for peers more as a person to look up to for my children the future

[@websiteowns]

you are an investment banker, you have insane opportunities for exits and future quality of life. you have a bright future my friend

[@lucifermorningstar9241]

@@websiteowns that's soo nice man, I doo hope to exit into hedge funds in the future, fingers crossed...hope you have a nice life too!

[@Seraphina93]

Please take time off U deserve a life next to work, Even if it’s just a walk in ur lunch break or a park marathon, Or a two-day vacation on the weekends.

[@benfosterphr781]

This brought me back to my life before kids, and when I was running my own consulting biz. Enjoy your life now, when you have control over your entire day. (Now, I answer to my employer and have to work REALLY hard to fit in just 30 mins of "me time" in-between getting kids out the door in the morning, 10-15 meetings each day scarfing down my lunch in-between calls, cooking dinner for the kids, cleaning up the messy-ass kitchen and house with toys everywhere, and dipping into sleep time for that precious "me time" after my wife and I divide and conquer chores and try our best to catch up 1:1 at night). Also interestingly enough, Minneapolis food & drink prices are basically on-par with NYC with the same tiers of establishments!

[@Atlas-tp8dw]

sounds like you're a great dad and husband👏

[@tonykwiatkowski]

Ty

[@sadiebowman2682]

Taylor, I can’t believe you have almost 500k subscribers! I remember when you only had, like, 20k. Good for you girl!!! I love your posts and I always look forward to watching them. You’re so transparent which is really refreshing, and I’ve learned so much by watching your channel. Keep up the great work! Sending positive energy and best wishes from NorCal. 😊 🐢

[@hnnhml]

Very very well deserved 🙌🏻

[@hnnhml]

@@fionasmith-bz8ox exactly, because she produces good work she deserves to have 500k subs (and more). Why do you think she’s had it easier in life?

[@NickVetter]

She blew up so fast.

[@ikhlaqahmed7168]

She is trying for a long time 😂

[@rexchiquine6049]

I only need two more subscribers,,,

[@storiesinpictures]

NYC has no business being less expensive than London, I'm impressed.

[@Kate.Sangalang]

This is my kind of videos, keep them coming, Taylor. Bless us with what its like living in New York City!

[@nejikuzya6710]

Love your content

[@helloryantanaka]

This was an excellent video for so many reasons. The storytelling, the pacing, the cuts, the simplicity, and the details were very well done. Nice job on continuing to grow as a KZbinr.

[@TaylorBell]

THANK YOU so much 🥹

[@lindencalloway5]

I amaze this lifestyle. My life completely change and I feel so much better. Just finished reading The 21 Former Doctor Secrets Rachel Morgan 👀 IT IS S0 GOOOD

[@jauntily]

Watching Taylor's salad preparation makes me want to up my game by getting a salad mixing box or bowl with a lid and also get Green Goddess dressing.

[@denverdubois5835]

"It doesn't smell like feet. I kinda thought it would" This is why I really like you. LOL

[@marcelmp_]

I admire your bravery Taylor. Recording and talking to the camera while walking in public is so hard. I tried... its embarrassing but worth it lol 😄😄

[@hillaryh5807]

She may have a camera man she’s talking to

[@fwijffels]

Interesting how rent is outrageously expensive in New York, but restaurants and takeaway seem quite affordable. I live in Zürich, Switzerland and rent is way lower, but restaurants way more expensive.

[@Chris-ij8tb]

Austin TX here and the food prices are the same if not higher. It is pretty interesting

[@avalonfey]

As someone in Australia doing the conversion maths while watching, that was the part that stuck out to me too. I expected NY to be so much more expensive but eating out in NY is the same or even cheaper than doing so in Melbourne/Sydney/Brisbane

[@ghostpos]

You nailed it. I used to eat 1$ slices of pizza and get a whiskey/beer combo for 5 bucks. Rent however ate half my income.

[@mariannap4181]

i live in Paris and i was thinking the same thing. Even the coffee is more expensive

[@meganyoude4129]

Same as London/Bristol in the UK. Prices here are so much more expensive than anything on this vid!

[@peterpapastafidas5584]

Thanks for sharing all these great coffee and food spots in NYC.Everything looks delicious.

[@thirtynine392001]

Insightful video - thanks for the perspective. I live in a very expensive California city, but can eat for two weeks on what you spent during a couple of your days! I go grocery shopping once a week and get take out once a week.

[@luciaruggiero4335]

Love the honesty and integrity of this video. Thank you!!!

[@oruizlavin]

This channel is incredibly refreshing. I recently discovered it browsing through KZbin, and I'm completely hooked. Your dedication to your YT community and the quality of your videos (and content) are truly inspiring and heartwarming. Keep up the excellent work and positive vibes!

[@alejandrorodriguez4189]

Taylor giving us what we need for the weekend start 😊🐢 enjoyed this Taylor!

[@humphrey]

Seems like you're balancing a good amount of reasonable expenses with spending you value and enrich your life. I think your income can def support it (from your other video!). Impressive for NYC Taylor!

[@TaylorBell]

Aw thanks Big H. That's the goal 💪🏼

[@bw-pi8gu]

You are such a kind and sweet person! Don't trade these qualities for anything else!!

[@iceangel96]

I get so energized just watching your videos, I love your vibe and energy ❤

[@IOSALive]

Taylor Bell, Subscribed because your videos are so much fun!

[@karenwendling7228]

I’d say it’s more like a round bottom flask, but Florence is close enough. As a chemistry teacher, I salute you!

[@JHawk]

Loved this vid! Now I’m curious for what mine is here in Chicago

[@yourbestfriendjoshua]

I have no desire to live in or move to NYC but I LIVE for your videos about it.👏🏼

[@mdyaqub7347]

Love to seeing people from different cultures exploring Indian food and experiencing the vibrant atmosphere of Indian-themed spots in NYC! It's amazing how Indian cuisine and culture can bring people together across the world. Hope you enjoyed the flavors and had a great time ^⁠_⁠^

[@auroratorres7873]

You are a beautiful young woman. Enjoy New York City as much as you can. Stay as long as you can afford to because New York City is like no other place on earth. I lived there for 65 years! Had to leave for personal reasons but I do miss certain aspects of it, like the food. There is no food like New York City food! Wishing you lots of luck!

[@imchristan]

I love bagels. Tompkins square bagels in ur neighborhood is really good. How was Apollo bagels?

[@annie_bannainai]

Perfect content to watch before an upcoming trip to NYC - Can't imagine a better way to prepare than to watch your videos. 😍

[@Aprilhojazz]

Enjoy watching your mini movie! The tone of your voice and the speed of your speech is spot on for me as audience. Feeling intrigued and curious about what comes next. Well done!

[@hastih89]

Taylor, your filming style, your editing and your entire video montage skills are next level now! 👏🏻🏆 🥇😍 You go girl !

[@caitlinwhite138]

I completely relate to feeling guilty over smaller/frivolous purchases. I was raised by two frugal parents (my dad is a financial advisor) so now I always feel SUPER guilty doing uber eats (I only do it 4 times a month) or buying a coffee or getting an extra fun thing at target. But then I remind myself that I make ~600k a year so an extra ~$300/month in small purchases that make me super happy are SO worth it! Life is short and if u can afford to treat yourself you might as well:)

[@pinkartcat]

can i ask what you do that makes 600k/yr? 😅

[@MarcoAshford]

Casual youtube comment section with 600K income a year lol. Don't worry you are poor here, people make millions here on average.

[@everythingisrosiex]

Your energy is just so wonderfully contagious. Loved this video

[@all-rides3257]

Watching your videos truly brightens up my day. Your living a dream of mind.! A content creator living in the heart of new york city.! Love from Texas God Bless

you have a really fun personality

[@AllySheehan]

17:51 in Australia we would call this a burger, wondering what differentiates a sandwich in the US?

[@ahmetbakibasci8070]

Couldn’t agree more with the coffee temp bit… need it piping hot or icyyy cold

[@zephany]

Another wonderful time of being educated and entertained with Taylor! Thanks, girl! You're like me when it comes to coffee. It can be hot or it can be cold, but it can't be in-between!

[@CaraherBeed]

I like your style about it very much. In addition to bbkbags , you have opened up new ideas for me in this field, hahahaha

[@joshuawilliams6800]

You have a Mammut backpack! I bought a jacket from them over a decade ago and it's still nearly as good as new.

[@edwardtakenaka5647]

Loved it…. Watched all 22.21 minutes….I’ve watched content from start to finish only twice now from anyone…. Both have been your work….bravo 😮

[@IOSALive]

Taylor Bell, Your videos always brighten my day, so I subscribed!

[@nathanyoder4509]

Surprised but excited for a Friday night vid! I agree sometimes it is nice to loosen up a little on spending. Hope you are having a nice weekend!

[@iwanttoplaywithspringsteen9188]

Your production and editing is just getting better constantly. You are doing the tea thing big style .... As a Brit I find tea after a meal when I’m full works best . Coffee in between on an empty stomach. These are my steadfast rules and stops me having to think .🤔

[@michelemarias]

I'm a student of English, and today I found your video, now I follow your channel because I am learning more different and new vocabulary and questions.

[@yvonnel7777]

Right there with you on the coffee. I tend to to choose iced while out and about and hot at home. Problem solved lol. Love your vids.❤

[@davidlewalski2292]

"Like a Bell ring-a-ding-ding" . Thanks for making me laugh with that one. Flashback, I used to go the Mercury Lounge in the 90's. Man, I am getting old.

[@SeeliLeck3r]

This eagle scream at 1:53 is underrated 😅 (as an European citizen, I like this “WTF is a kilometer???!!” vibe 😅)

[@ftlbaby]

Cafe Mogador is one of my favorite breakfast spots in NYC. Happy it's still going strong as I have not visited since 2016...

[@everythingisrosiex]

Also totally with you on the Luke-warm drinks... my colleagues thought I had like 6 coffees a day when really I was just going to microwave it so it was the temperature I could drink it at ahaha

[@matthewwardrobe9588]

Really enjoyed watching your videos as always. Interesting to see others weekly spending in comparison to my own. In terms of coffee temp, with you for an americano, either piping hot or cold, but a latte for me is drunk lukewarm.

[@Suitrags]

The sound design in this is fantastic. Incredible effort goes into your editing 🔥🔥

[@TaylorBell]

THANK YOU so much

[@ehsanansari6044]

thanks a lot Taylor, you are so motivated hope the best for you, to be honest, I try to familiar not only your culture but the excellent your brilliant Us accent, I try deeply to achieve your pace!

[@stavan.sanghvi]

I've been watching your vlogs for a long time now and I just wanted to say how much I love them! You're such a cheering and transparent person, and your videos always brighten my day. Best wishes and lots of love to you! Keep up the amazing work! 💖

[@Lifeislovely111-zl9qz]

Great video! I totally agree with you regarding coffee - lukewarm coffee is the worst! For your coffee/food purchases, are you allowed to write any of those off as business expenses? Also, it sounds like you buy the books you read. Have you ever considered checking out books from the library instead? NYPL is awesome and they have many locations in Manhattan.

[@whitneysommer2351]

Taking notes for my next trip to NYC! Such a fun video, love your energy! 😊

[@HowardOfficial]

Loved this one. I must however question jam (or jelly as you may call it) on bagels. Surely smoked salmon would be a better option?

[@sashalee8132]

I love this video, the editing is so good and shows so much info in an organized way

[@eliseproulx1637]

Used to go to Mogador when I was a 26 year old living in the East Village (30 years ago). It was a deal then and looks like it still is!

[@SPANISHFLYNYC]

[@SPANISHFLYNYC]

Sincerely appreciate it Tee Tee 🙏👊 I'm a former Latina magazine model and NYC dancer gimme a shout out girl lol 😆 luv your channel 🤗🌹

[@amybutler4568]

I love content like this where you’re taking us with you unlike other creators I’ve seen that just list off their daily expenses. I don’t live in nyc but it’s very interesting to see your love of your neighborhood and a different side to the city than most show

[@tagbon]

This was interesting and informative. Not just the actual dollar figures, but also hearing about your spending mindset. Also glad to hear that you enjoy Thursday as a precursor to the weekend. Or to call it by it's proper name, Friday Junior 😆Thanks for the video! 🥰

[@TaylorBell]

FRIDAY JUNIOR I love that. Thank you for watching 😊

[@mkl0215]

Hey Taylor, was cool meeting you this week. When you said you were working on a video I didn't realize the coffee shop was literally part of the video. You have great East Village taste although now I'm wondering why I've never seen a celebrity at Cafe Mogador

[@TaylorBell]

So great meeting you too Mark!! Was finishing up editing this video as we spoke 😅 I also haven’t seen a celeb at cafe Mog, only my friends have. What a rip off

[@frawdulent]

I don’t think I can make it through the whole video. I’m cringing so hard and I’m less than a minute in. The chills are too overwhelming.

[@IndieRider111]

The yogurt bowl was the best value but you have to go out and socialize while you're young

[@elisestarday6372]

Do more LA back home content like Urth Cafe and typical tourist videos like this one! I really enjoyed this video so much as I hope you continue do more soon! ☺️

[@leslierussell9317]

As an Indian I can say that my parents would have never allowed me to leave my job. But I can say that India and US are different economies. In India there is serious job crisis. It is my personal opinion that you shouldn't have left your job. You're an amazing blogger. I like your videos. Keep cheering the people all around the world.

[@natashameow9857]

Loved this video, Taylor! It was insightful for me, as I'm also in my 20s and trying to track my expenses, save more $ and have a better relationship with money in general 😉🐢

[@cagenazariah]

I also stan for Barry’s as a self splurge.

[@schw0373]

I saw the line at Apollo Bagels last week when I was on vacation in NYC - they're obviously really popular. The sandwiches (and bagels) at Tompkins Square Bagels are pretty great, so I'll have to compare them next time I'm there. (I've only been to the one by Union Square, if that matters)
