if you look carefully you can find something below 14 st. for under $2,000 a month -How much is a decent place to rent in Manhattan? Not a shitbox, but just a nice little place right downtown-
In order to find a clean apartment for under $2000 in Manhattan, you will need to be resourceful and perhaps pay a fat Real Estate broker's fee. $2K is the magic "Rent Destabilization" number.
Come on a few of us on here know your wife and we can all agree it wonât work. :eek: joking of course
Do you guys have to pay for your health insurance out of your winnings? And is there and equivalent of a 401k for a trader, like being able to contribute pre-tax earnings?
Of course you do unless someone is doing it for you. Isn't that what most profitable traders do... Pay their bills...live off their income ??? * Mortgage Payment * Home and Auto Insurance * Tax Accountant Fees * Private Medical and Dental Plans * Keogh and IRA Plans * Investments for Diversity (stocks, real estate, art collections et cetera) * Life Insurance (those with a family) * Kids College Education Fund * Interest Rates has been rising...put more money in the savings account because those rates improve in a rising interest rate enviroment * Many other expenses I don't have time to go into. Those buying fast cars and juggling women... Must be raking in the big dough or still living at home with the parents. Mark (a.k.a. NihabaAshi) Japanese Candlestick term
It is becoming pretty impossible to find a decent 1 bed or above for under $2k in Manhattan. I live in Manhattan, but I bought my apt a couple of years ago, I have seen nice 800 ft apartments renting for $3k / month or so. It may sound strange for people not in NYC, but it is hard to find a decent apartment to buy for < $1M. There used to be some good deals in midtown-east, or below Houston (Chinatown neighborhood), but even these places have sky rocketed. A friend bought a place on Avenue *D* (alphabet city, yes, where Son of Sam used to commit his murders) for over 1M, it is insane.
