Review of New York, New York


yuck
Star Rating - 10/24/2006
I lives in NY (and London) for over 20 years and yes, I am VERY SUCCESSFUL! You couldn't pay me enough to live there again.

It is filthy and filled w/ a bunch of insane egomaniacs. No, NY'ers are not "smarter" more "cultured" or "cooler" than people in say Houston.

Actually, if you walk around you see how unhealthy and creepy most of them look and there is a HUGE underclass - also , few real adults a lot of kids out of college and creepy people living out a prolonged neurotic adolescense.

If you are young and just beginning your career a few years will season you but get out before you are too old!

I will take trees and fresh air anyday - thank you!
