Protip: that isn't big money in NYC either. You live in a city with a bunch of people worth 8 figures plus.

Meanwhile, most people that make that money don't really live in NYC anyway. They move to a burb.

You could, but it would still be a massive waste of money. That's the point at which you should be saving the overwhelming majority of it so you can build real net worth. NYC sucks for that.

There really aren't that many people worth 8 figures or more. Maybe 2-3% of the total NYC population.

You have to understand that the majority of people in NYC are poors taking advantage of handouts (rent control/stabilized housing, public housing, etc.). Then another huge percentage are people just there for a short period of time. Immigrants that got a job, people fresh out of school, people in school, etc. Then you have weird groups that live there because that's where their weird neighborhood is (think certain Orthodox Jews and such).

Of normal, successful people that stay in NYC long term - it only really makes sense if you're outrageously rich to an extent that the money doesn't matter. Otherwise, people tend to move to a surrounding area (NJ, Westchester, LI). And of the really rich that stay in NYC - many have second homes somewhere else anyway.

Maybe, but the city is built for and run by this 5%. They have an elite private school system, a bunch of elite amenities, etc.

There are also a whole bunch of people that live in the city that don't understand that they're being dumb and shouldn't be there.

NYC is one of a handful of places in the US that are rich people's playgrounds and all the other huge numbers of UMC professionals all live in the surrounding areas. Which is why the OP is silly.
