The title of the thread is SPENDING 11K not SAVING 11k...:mjlol: trust me as a new yorker this dude is blowing through money just by being in manhattan...
:dead:


Again, where does it or he say he's NOT saving money? You're assuming because he spends x amount there's nothing left to save.

I’m not sure how old he is but he doesn’t seem old. So if he’s in the earlier stages of his career, lets say he makes about 200-225k per year as a SDE. That puts him at about 11k-12k per month in New York, without healthcare benefits or retirement savings taken into account. So with that, I hope he’s actually making in the 250k+ range… at least. But even with that, he can’t be saving or investing much, even for a rainy day. I’m all for enjoying your life, but you gotta be calculated. And if he’s not paying off those AMEX cards every month, that interest is gonna be a bytch.

I actually hope he’s making closer to 300k to be living like that.

Good for him, and if he actually starts hurting for cash, he has a few easy methods to save some money.

He won’t be buying a $1500 iPhone every month and I’m sure if he wanted to he could skim that $2500 food bill down

And the clothing thing, $2500 a month on clothes per month means he is buying a few really expensive pieces probably? Because if I spent $2500 a month in cloths the amount of cloths I’d have would be beyond reason.

Amazon is the LAST place you should work and blow money like you have no worries unless your name is Bezos. They INTENTIONALLY go through employees like toilet paper.

let him learn the hard way.

these big corporations are NOT your friend. You are a NUMBER to them at the end of the day.

this is also just an expose on how expensive it is to live even an above average life in a big city.

I just checked our DoorDash bill and we are doing 2k DoorDash per month…. The grocery store near my building has an average bill
Of $150 per visit. I bought four items there and it was $70

I fukking get it :mjlol:

At Amazon in NYC he should be making 300k at minimum.
