  • In 2009 I lived in Manhattan on 80k/yr and it sucked. 5years later I was at 165k and as a single guy I was finalyl able to live somewhere “nice” in brooklyn 3 stops from wall street and it was great. Only problem was that there was no way I was ever going to be able to afford to buy anything.
    So I’ll say if you are ok renting your whole life, 220k is plenty and there are a lot of good options for now. If you want to eventually buy a place, you may have to compromise.
