Have you dreamed of living in the heart of New York City – taking the subway to work, catching a Broadway show, getting Chinese takeout at two o’clock in the morning? Many people dream of big city life and all of the adventure that goes with it but there is also a huge price tag that comes with taking a bite of the big apple.
There are many who want to live there so badly that they are moving into tiny apartments to be able to afford to live in the city they love. Others live in the city now but with the tough economy, they needed to downsize to stay there. This isn’t happening just in New York City, but in other high rent area like San Francisco and Los Angeles. With an economy that has forced people into downsizing and retailers like IKEA catering to small space solutions – will micro living be the new housing trend?
is it just me, or can that guy not even lay the f*ck down?
ReplyDeleteHe can, he just has to slip his legs under the TV. Personally, I'm upgrading to a janitor's closet after my current lease is up. I can't wait!

Obscene immigration rates play a role in this terrible tragedy America's young are suffering through which Austrian/Libertarian types always seem to ignore.
As a part of "America's young", please let me inform you that we are not suffering from immigration rates. What we ARE suffering from is old hags like you who know nothing and bitch and moan every time anyone says a word about ending social security and the rest of the redistributions from young to old. In short, get out of our way.

DeleteLove getting a rise out of bumper sticker Libertarians like you though.
