if I was a burger I would live in Northern California, my dream is to see the redwood forests some day

>>28918426
Your answer is Binance.com and a VPN.

Also, fuck NYS.

>>28918426
Its fucking awful OP. Bitlicense faggotry and straight up overpriced police/nanny state rat infested shithole. Cant wait to make it and get the fuuuuck outta here.

I live in WA. It would be comparable if we didn’t have the most beautiful primeval conifer forests on Earth. Hope your home sinks into the sea, and every last New Yorker dies with lungs full of salt water.

>>28918669
hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...

>>28918729
how do i set up the verification? i have nordvpn but putting in my valid address and banking information is going to make it wrong

>>28918747
where do you plan on going? I'm considering PA or CT

>>28918752
i live in the southern tier but i couldn't agree more if you're talking about manhattan

>>28918789
I am also in NY and in case you're worried of getting cucked by KYC sometime in the future through Binance, I recommend Atomic Wallet. Buy your shit on Coinbase and transfer there.

>>28918752
>lives in the tranny capital of the earth
>has the nerve to wish ill-will on anyone just because they had the bad luck to be born and raised somewhere.

>>28918729
And to answer your question, I fund it with Bitcoin via cashapp or litecoin via anything else. It only asks for an email, no ID verification or crap to set it up.

>>28918843
i love that new "Extra Mile" IPA y'inz brew down there.

How is living here considered living? The burden of living here is like living in the underworld. Pure hell. I can't wait to leave NY.

>>28918889
OP here, i bought my coins on friday and my bank hasnt verified the transactions yet, and i cant move my ETH funds to my wallet, what the fuck do i do? or am i just cucked by this dogshit centralized exchange

>>28918789

See

>>28918891

If only there was a way to fix this

>>28918840
I was thinking Texas because of the no income tax and lax gun laws. Not sure though because I want to be somewhere I can grow my own weed plants for medicinal use (my mom has early onset alzheimers). I'd avoid PA its a commonwealth.

>>28918426
Why would anyone live there? You can work remotely from anywhere in the US, why live in a shithole with insane taxes and retarded living conditions? So you can go to broadway? Eat out at overpriced restaurants?

>>28918951
just have to wait for the initial transfer unfortunately, but as soon as it clears I'd take it right off as its not doing anything special for you. Also, Atomic wallet lets you buy with a Visa.

>>28919268
If you are going around the law, I would fund the account with crypto, not with a credit card.

>>28919075
I wish I could short NYC. Its economic backbone is business and finance, but those sectors can be done from literally any location on earth, or just done remotely. There is zero reason to live in that expensive hell hole, or spend hours commuting there each day to work, or dealing with any of its bullshit whatsoever. It may take a couple decades, but NYC will go the way of fucking Detroit sooner or later.

>>28919383
not around the law, just around major KYC exchanges. Side note, when NY finally gets on board, I can only expect the prices to shoot up like a junkie

Grew up in a small town in NY, about an hour and 20 minutes north of NYC, live near woods and cow farms but theres still small cities only 15 minutes away. There fields we shoot guns and ride quads. The past ten years things have changed. It was always expensive but now 2 bedroom homes are $450k easy, and the taxes for a home like that and a half acre are around $12k a year. Its also a police state now and they tax everything. They also encourage your neighbor to snitch. Beautiful old victorian homes and small towns but my buddy is trying to convince me to move to SC or somewhere south. These ratfucks will try to rent out a room in a shared house for $1k a month no utilities.

Literally pay tons of tax on super fat white people and niggers

>>28918669
NY has tons of natural beauty outside of the city. People from the city don't like dealing with the winters though. Normal seems like a nice climate. Then again they have fucking wildfires every summer. Seems not worth the risk.

>>28919541
This is why I am putting my coumo coivd neet bux into crypto. If I can’t be making my living here anymore, gonna live poor and save and try to find my way out of this whothole state.

Doesn't NYC have a municipal income tax or something?
>do work, make money
>federal gubmint takes some of it
>state gubmint takes some of it
>city gubmint takes some of it

Wow. I want to be a government when I grow up, easy money.

>>28919649
It’s not the lack of beauty, it’s the cancerous politics of the state that spreads from NYC and contaminates the rest of this god forsaken state.

>>28918951
Coinbase takes a week more or less until your coins are actually available to take off the exchange. They’re probably running a shell game at this point and hope that most niggers never move shit off

>>28919003
I have the APOE4 gene, you should see if you have it too. Get your DNA sequenced to see if you have it. You'll want to take omega 3's for the rest of your life to prevent alzheimers in the future... As for your mom, psilocybin microdosing and lion's mane may help

>>28918992
>government control of crypto
no and fuck off with this faggot

>>28919075

i hate cars and driving, NYC is basically the only option in the entire US :/

What's a good VPN?

>>28919751
Make fun of it all you will, but cashapp let’s you buy and send it anywhere instantly, and fees and prices arnt horrible. I often use it to fund my VPN wallets that arnt ETH based.

Also as a new yorker seeing people flee to Texas, I cant help but smile when they get cucked with power outages. Just wait until the see the unbearable Texas heat

>>28918426
Would be a shame if something happened to your governor amirite?

>>28919710
Yep. Major cities double-fuck you from both sides. Not only is cost of living complete AIDS, but then you get taxed by the city on top of the federal/state taxes. Unless you're some yuppie faggot making so much that it doesn't even matter, you're completely fucked.

>>28919871
Anything that lets you select a country. I use a free one in my phone that lets me select the same EU country that I lied and said I lived in.

>>28919075
Honestly for me and I'd imagine for alot of people here; it's that we're born here so we have to deal with insane cost of living and absolute rape taxes so it's hard to get something together to GTFO. Other than that its richfags who have fuck you money and flyover transplants who think this is the place to "make it".

>>28919963
Thanks. What's the free one you use?

>>28918669
I used to live there, very underrated.

>>28918426
>live in dallas

>>28919751
That does happen sometimes (I remember last summer during the LINK bubble, at one point coinbase stopped being able to do withdrawals). But the actual reason why you have to wait roughly a week before taking them off the exchange is because it takes time for ACH transfers to complete. Before, CBP made you wait that duration of time, and you could only buy anything with your USD once the funds had cleared. Now they allow instant purchases, but it's really more of a locked-in IOU until the funds clear. Otherwise you could pull bullshit akin to check fraud from Catch Me If You Can very easily, by initiating ACH transfers, buying stuff, taking it off exchange, and then coinbase only finding out later on that you scammed them after the funds were out of their hands.

>>28919838
>i hate cars and driving,
Why
>NYC is basically the only option in the entire US :/
Between amazon and uber you can do any shopping. And lots of cities have bus routes if you live in denser areas.

>>28919075
NYC is about much more than that. It's hard to describe but there is a magic to it. You are living in a work of art, even if it's got some bad restorations and a few ugly parts. I keep trying to leave, and rationally I have a great situation elsewhere but this city has my heart.

>>28920031
I forget, it literally says freevnp, and I have to watch like 2min of ads every 24h, but it works. These are the apps I use for everything.

I am phasing out of coinbase to coinbase pro or something else next probably, and still am useing RH for their L2 book data till my trial runs out.

>>28918426
Everyday I don't need to use MTA in NYC is a blessing.

>>28919783
Thanks m8 will definitely look into all of that. WAGMI

>>28919946
it's easy to increase your earnings in a city like NYC if you have actual ability

>>28918426
Comfy as fuck lol catch out outside

Nah but forreal this pandemic has exposed how many hobos and drug addicts there are. They used to be able to buy a $1 coke and spend the whole day at McDs but now they’re all outside. So many fucking stabbings and shit now

>>28918669
you must go

>>28920343
Lay it out for me friend

>>28920343
Yes, you make more. But cost of living and taxes are also far greater, and it just isn't worth it. But people fall for the meme anyway because they naively see it as a status thing.

Which gets to another issue I have with living in big cities like that. Almost everyone (at least in the good neighborhoods) is a transplant. Hardly anyone is "from" there. Nobody has roots. Nobody has kids. It's all just a bunch of transients and degenerates wanting to LARP as the cast of Friends. Absolutely soulless.

here's a protip for you

WALLAH now you can trade shitcoins that NYfags can't

no need to thank me

>>28920479
the main reason is volume of opportunity, density within various industries, and the abundance of corporate headquarters. find your niche and in NYC there will be more jobs in that field, at more levels of the ladder, than elsewhere. if it's an industry clustered here, of which there are many dozens, you can hop between companies to move up more easily.

In NYC you also tend to get exposure to things harder to come by elsewhere. This is more niche specific but universal - there are challenges, dramas, opportunities, and the like that happen here at a frequency and level that is very uncommon elsewhere. All of this increases your skills and the value of your experience.

Even today, with the economy wrecked, there are more good opportunities to be found in NYC than in most other US cities.

When I moved here, I was making $64k salary. I got to there with five years experience in an industry niche in another major American city. Six years later I was making $115k

>>28919751

>I'd avoid PA its a commonwealth.
What's the importance of a state being a "commonwealth"?

Isn't Massachusetts a commonwealth too?

>>28920106
Someday it will be free...

>>28920556
>But cost of living and taxes are also far greater,
not as much as you think. rent is the only thing with high cost of living here and it's not bad once you reach a certain level. There's no reason to pay $3k/month rent in New York City even though many people do.

You have to understand that the city has 1 million "rich" people surrounded by 7 million poor people who live off of less than $50k/year. That means there is a lot of low cost stuff around. The longer you are here, the cheaper it gets as you learn how to do things.

Taxes are too high but it's not a big deal as your salary will increase fast enough and you can help by dumping money into pre-tax things.

Most importantly, you'll enjoy your life on a day to day basis. The little moments and the flow of things here, if it suits you, is irreplaceable. The city is loaded with jews, fags, sjw dykes, nogs, and puerto ricans but is still somehow enjoyable. that should tell you what you need to know.

>tfw got cucked out of sweet GRT gains because of this stupid state does not allow to buy it here

>>28920572
I didn't fall for anything, I've lived here. I've lived other places, too. There are pros and cons but it comes down to personal values. For my taste, NYC is a great place to live if you are intelligent and like interacting with other people.

>>28919741
how is california any better besides the weather? I was replying to some eurocuck shilling california
NY was not a one-party state until a year or two ago so i think it's actually less cucked than california is (at least currently). if progressive politics aren't your thing it's definitely not a good time to move to either NY or CA

Native Brooklynite here, spent 35 years living in this concrete jungle...
My ancestors founded this city almost 400 years ago and i have always loved living here but ever since covid hysteria has hit, i have been fantasizing of getting the fuck out and moving someplace with cheaper electricity for my crypto mining
I am getting sick of this place... its just boring now and is not the same. i feel like inflation is going to make shit even worse in the next few years and just want to get out of the country to be honest

you are like a hopelessly devoted beaten wife.

>>28920782
115k in NYC with all the taxes and cost of living aint shit desu. An apartment in even the shittiest of neighborhoods wipes out like 36-45k out of that minimum. Why not live somewhere making say 75k with considerably less taxes, lower cost of living, and less strict laws? If I earned anywhere near what I make here I'd be living pretty well literally anywhere else in country except California obviously.

>>28921115
NY is far less cucked than California, in terms of the population. The government is extremely corrupt but everyone knows and expects that so doesn't pretend otherwise. The reality is that NYC is ungovernable so they don't try too hard.

>>28921160
Shhhhhhhh

Have you been on the subways recently? Ever since Covid, it is like a mental asylum down there. So many junkies and lunatics just sitting on cars riding back and forth smelling. Even in the station platforms there are countless wierdos who just sit on benches all day screaming at random people walking by

>>28919075
NY is more than just the city, friend. Some of us live in the woods and have never seen a nigger in our lives

>>28921137
Sorry you are too autistic to get it. NYC appeals to some people and really turns others off. It has to do with what's in your own heart. It's a place with a lot going on, literally, so it's stimulating. Even mundane things are infused with a sense of adventure and uncertainty - you never quite know what will happen. The city has a LOT of really great stuff, beautiful, amazing stuff. You get glimpses of beauty in every form constantly. You can talk to 100 people in varying amounts every day, for the rest of your life.

NYC is about the small moments - that is what creates the magic. Practically it is easy to see why we shouldn't live here. I'm not from here and I've left, and I rationally should not want to be here right now. All of that disappears the instant I return after being gone for any length of time.

>>28921012
>The little moments and the flow of things here
Not him but can you elaborate on this, I don't get what you mean.

>>28921115
It’s been more than a year or two... local politics vary by region, but the state gvt is so cucked that the rest of the state gets cucked too. Look at everything from Bitcoin to Gun laws, and if it is fun we can’t do it legally.

>>28921160
Mmm, tastes like red!

>>28921211

yup I have commuted on them full time, the entire time. Def more pissgoblins than usual, in the pandemic-fear-peak last spring I would be literally outnumbered by them 5 to 1 at 34th st

Also mask wearing is not enforced whatsoever which has been a pleasant surprise.

>>28921477
gun laws are cucked, crypto laws are cucked, taxes are especially cucked. i am not disputing that. I think I may have to move to PA to get away from this.
what i am saying is that we had a republican majority in the state senate until 2019, along with some DINOs (i.e. the Independent Democratic Conference) preventing full commie takeover.
that is gone now. dems control every part of state government. we don't have republicans as mayor or governor either. things here are about to get a lot worse.
they're going to redestrict everything so that republicans never win an election here ever again.

>>28921418
>The city has a LOT of really great stuff, beautiful, amazing stuff. You get glimpses of beauty in every form constantly.
I see literally the opposite. The city is a banality with grime, smug politics, the government cockblocking you, and homeless insanity put into every aspect of life. There is nothing in NYC that is untouched by its filth and disorders.

>tobacco and alcohol

>Dem laws testing zone
wrong, that's the west coast.

The trick to NYC is to understand the limitations and work within them. It's a terrible place to be a landlord, so don't be one. See, problem solved.

>>28921794

>>28921783
Its a crab in boiling pot mentality, you feel everyone suffering together and feel a sort of comradery in how selfish and insulated you all really are. You think nowhere else in the world exists outside the concrete jungle because of all this shit happening right in front of your face. The slow country lifestyle would kill these crabs.

>>28918669
Muir Woods. That's a beautiful place, and it seems almost prehistoric walking through there, with the ferns and the trees and the clover all over the ground (it's not actually clover but I forget what it's called - looks like three-leave clovers though). It's beautiful.

You also have to see the sequoias though. If you make a trip of it, spend some time in Frisco, see the Golden Gate, tour Alcatraz, all that ... but then you have to take a week and drive to the Sierras on the eastern side of the state. Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon National Park (which is underappreciated and amazing), Yosemite National Park (which is very touristy, but deservedly so).

The Sierra Nevadas are some of the most beautiful, breathtaking scenery in North America.

>>28921920
sure, but maybe better is to say it's for misfits, good and bad. i find that as an exceptional person I have an easier life here than elsewhere. Do you have any idea how lousy it is to be a top-tier, functional adult in a place full of failures and cowards not used to dealing with your kind? Very isolating psychologically.

>>28918669

Let us know how you like it in three months.

The key is to find a way to have both in your life. Nature and tranquility is amazing and the best way to live in the world, but an invigorating urban setting like NYC is a great way to live among the people.

I'm seeing Crown Heights, East NY, Bronx, Flatbush (lol, cmon bro you KNOW these are shitty neighborhoods). Stop being disingenuous, we both know anything "affordable" is going to be in a crime ridden nigger shithole. Even walking through midtown/LES you'll be greeted by a giant NYC rat lol. Don't get me wrong I enjoy living somewhere with so many different kinds of people and never knowing what you'll see next as much as the next lifelong NYer. But let's not just pretend alot of the parts of living here don't suck unless you're absolutely fuck you rich.

You are my favorite kind of person to compete with for an apartment - an idiot.

I was quite literally looking at apartments in very nice areas a few hours ago, on that very site, for $2,500 max. And I'd never live in any of those areas.

How about Greenpoint? Would you agree that it's a nice area? It is, for your information. I'm sure, without even looking, that you can find an apartment well under $3k right now that is excellent. If you can't, you are really bad at using the internet, which suits me just fine.

>>28922548
nigga don't act like it matters. NYC does not care about you - the government is not your daddy. it's been corrupt for 150 years. No one cares - fuck the laws. There is a freedom here, because there is little anyone can do to manage a wild density of this many people.

If you want to get involved in things where that corruption matters, do them elsewhere. Again, figure out what a place is GOOD FOR and work within those parameters. I don't recommend buying real estate in NYC, for example. That does not prevent you from buying real estate, nor from living in NYC. If you can't split hairs like this stay tha fuck out because you're not sharp enough for this.

>>28922843
Yang will get elected and be an improvement, if still a joke. The main thing is he won't cater to niggers because the Chinks who form his base hate that shit. Net positive over the current guy. I'm not voting for anyone, imagine thinking they count the votes lmfao.

>>28922830
>the government is not your daddy
>except in NY the government actually is your daddy

>>28922715
Its true... She was a real one. There were a few other black people who tried to do the same thing. The city didnt even have proper permission and legislation to make those. All the murals look like shit now they have dirt all over them from tire marks and people walking all over

>>28922559
I been in Astoria for 5 years now and it’s the best neighborhood I’ve lived in.

>>28923083
I actually signed up to yang gang campaign as a joke, but i bet he would be okay. They have these Zoom training sessions i really want to join one and troll them somehow .

>>28923292
idk i've heard some wild shit about astoria lately. someone i know lived there for 6 months and got both of his vehicles vandalized during that time.

>>28922339
Staten island is far from Manhattan. It requires ferry to go everywhere. Dont come here. thanks.

>>28922724
Well youre pretentious and condescending enough to be a NYer thats for sure, atleast now I know you're legit and not LARPing.

>>28922761
Humboldt County got some good ass dank weed too

>>28922724
Greenpoint is very nice area but getting bougie as hell, and lots of new construction happening. One of my best friends from high school is actually running for city council of that district next year and i bet she is going to win

>>28923376
>2 vehicles in NYC

You deserved it. kek

>>28923474
sorry you are such a faggot. NYC is not for everyone but to pretend it's not an attractive place to live is foolish.

>>28923415
Yeah and never ming your Verazanno bridge has a fucking 20$ toll... it is retardiculous. I think its the #1 or #2 most expensive toll anywhere in the US. I grew up in Bay ridge, one time me and my friends actually walked across the bridge and almost got on the top of the pillars even though there is no pedestrian pathway and you're not allowed to walk there

Staten island is awesome though you fuckers still have deer and goats living there

>>28918669
Got lost in that forest and ran out of water. Ended up going 13 miles and met a bull elk face to face after coming around a corner. It was an epic and dangerous adventure

>>28923524
Exactly my point. So I either have to live adjacent to/in nigga hoods or hipster/transplant flooded "hotspots" for 3-3.5k a month.

>>28922866
>suckering money from retards and tourists
What are they paying them for? To fuck off?

>>28921537
fucking kek

>>28923524
That's true, and I don't want to live there myself, but I know for a fact that you can rent a good apartment there under $3k with ease.

$2500 monthly rent is as much as you want to pay. If you earn $100k/year, you can get an apartment at that price point. That's "made it" level in NYC and the magic number for true quality of life. You can live well for less but have to make tradeoffs like roommates, lesser areas, longer commutes, etc. If you can swing $2500 rent and don't hate your job every day, life here is pretty good.

>>28923743
>paying tolls
what am I, some suburbanite with an SUV? who gives a shit.

>>28923747
Elk are no joke. If you hit one with your car, it'll probably walk away but your car won't drive away.

>>28923756
No definitely not, my neighborhood Bay Ridge is very nice and not ghetto or hipster at all. Its basically upper middle class, lots of houses, condos and co ops.

My mom owns a really nice apartment that she rents out for 1700 a month, and she paid about 100k for it a few years back. It even has a balcony with view of the manhattan skyline and Statue of liberty... i really cant wait to inherit it

>>28920782
11 years experience and making only 115k is actually pretty awful for NYC. Should be at least 250k by now.

>>28923890
Who are you kidding... If you live in Staten Island you are definitely a Suburbanite. It is the forgotten borough. What do you do take the bus to hang out at the Staten Island Mall?

I live in Illinois and we are quickly or already depending on your view a degenerate shithole just like New York, some of the highest taxes in the country, need a firearms identification card

I think it's time people wake up and take the desertpill

Nevada, no taxes insane value on land, you can run a house on solar power, collect rainwater, hunt and grow food

It wasn't me idiot.
It was his and his wife's vehicles I just wanted to simplify it. This did not happen in the last neighborhood he lived in. He has since moved. Not everyone works in Manhattan btw. Also telling people they "deserve it" when their personal property is vandalized is leftist cuck shit

>>28924189
Thats bretty cool. Good on ya anon, best of luck. I'm shooting for somewhere in BK/Queens that isn't horrible and relatively close to the city myself.

>>28923761
Paying them to support their entrepreneurship or they appreciate the "culture"

>>28924290
>Should be at least 250k by now
Sure, keep believing that.

>>28918669
Based.
Best time to see the redwoods is in the wet season

t.work at a state park and wander around areas that are closed off to the public

>>28924379
>BK/Queens that isn't horrible and relatively close to the city
so close that they are in fact in the city.

>>28918669
PNW forester here
come on up! it's pretty fun

>>28918669
As an european I would either live in California or New York

>>28924598
>rainy season
so like anytime between October and May?

>>28924379
Thanks buddy, same to you... look in Bay Ridge its definitely affordable and really wonderful. If you drive it is about 30 minutes to downtown manhattan, if you take the train only about 45

Dyker Heights and Bensonhurst close by are great too

>>28918669
northern california is the worst place on earth

nor cal anon checking in. Its based up here

>>28924570
I heard a major reason behind the Weimar hyperinflation was to make it much easier to pay war reparations. So in other words, it was intentional by the Weimar government, although it caused a lot of pain for the common people no doubt.

>>28921137
I never even lived in NY (see my other reply) but how did you rednecks end up on 4chan of all places? Was it through some Q boomer Facebook group or what?

>>28924756
were the reparations denominated in DM? That would seem foolish.

>>28924608
>unironically living in the city
Please tell me you're joking. Why would I live in a yuppie/tourist, rat infested, congested shithole?

>>28924897
why would I care what you do? KYS, just don't do it in front of my train.

>>28924897
I think what that dude meant is that Brooklyn and Queens are technically a part of New York City, just like Bronx and Staten Island. But you're not wrong, everyone who lives in those Boroughs calls the island of Manhattan "the city" which i always do cuz thats where all the skyscrapers and shit are

>>28924892
It should be. Otherwise they wouldn't make such plans.

France noticed the hyperinflation and quickly changed terms (semi-illegally) by saying reparations must be pain in coal from the Saarland, not in DM. That caused a lot of political problems for the future.

>>28925415
if you can get to Times Sq within 45 minutes on the subway you are in the real city.

>>28924673
I'd recommend Dec-March

>>28925509
Yeah basically unless you are in Far Rockaway or something almost all trains are going to end up going to 42nd

>>28925415
>cuz thats where all the skyscrapers and shit are
brooklyn has skyscrapers

>>28925791
that's right, but did you notice the time data point? it was important. and that's from your door.

>>28925791
the A trains goes from Far Rock to 42nd Street. idk how long it takes though.

>>28925509
Oh wait i see what you mean. Yeah its basically true.
I hate how brooklyn and Queens basically just Corners of Long Island. We should invade take over the whole island and incorporate it into NYC, fuck those hamptons brats

>>28918426
Move. Warmer spots = good.

Stake some ARPA and get free Bella gibs while you wait for the MPC bubble.

Choose the movie which most accurately captures the quintessential 20th century New York sentiment

The French Connection (1971)
The Godfather (1972)
Taxi Driver (1976)
Annie Hall (1977)
Ghostbusters (1984)
Wall Street (1987)
Donnie Brasco (1997)
Cruel Intentions (1999)

I’m going to Columbia and I’m gonna live in a shitty Chinatown apartment just like my idol Nick Mullen. Eat shit faggot? That’s all that will be left after I dine out at Joes Shanghai every day for 5 years.

There's only one way for you to invest your money goyim.

>>28925832
Yeah wow I didnt realize so many. The highest floor apartment i can recall ever being in was this chicks apartment on the 43rd floor in downtown brooklyn? It was pretty fucking amazing, i remember one day when it rained and her apartment was above the clouds and windows didnt get wet at all. Other times it would though

Here is a shitty pic i took of the view i have better ones but its over the 4MB limit

my commute is currently 6 minutes.
>>28922495
what do you mean by 3 months

>>28926323
Gonna have to go Taxi Driver for over-all feel. Honorable mention to A Bronx Tale.
>>28926516
Adam plz go.

>>28926323
this depends on what your life was like. everyone is from a different neighborhood or had a different upbringing.
Kids was the most accurate for me but you didn't mention it. My dad was unironically a taxi driver in the 70s and apparently Taxi Driver is pretty fucking accurate.
Godfather/Donnie Brasco doesn't apply to anyone to anyone who didn't have inner dealings with the mob.
Annie Hall might be accurate for neurotic jews.
Honestly I think Good Time is the best NYC movie I've ever seen though. I

>>28926323
Ghostbusters

>>28924752
Oh yeah, how based was it when u had the worst air quality in the world & ash was falling from the sky for months last year you fucking faggot

>>28926323
Taxi Driver

Ghostbusters if i am in a good mood

>>28926516
Columbia is a good one, my godfather used to teach Journalism there... what are you studying? They have a fintech blockchain course I was looking into

>>28922145
This

like most big cities, i'd only live in NYC if i was filthy rich, otherwise it sounds awful

>>28926779
Thanks. Do you miss older NYC or do you like the way things are going?
