People pay $7,200 a month in rent for a two bedroom apartment in New York City. I’m assuming that’s with no yard or garage.
Yet, people can afford to pay this.
If you go by the old rule of “Don’t spend more than 20% of your take home pay on housing costs”, then a couple in New York City earn $35,000 a month? Wow. Invest in those Star Trek transporters. Think of the house you could buy in Nebraska on $35,000 a month. And you just “beam” to and from work.

Well, if I had the Star Treck Transport, Nebraska would not be my first choice... I’d be looking at a mansion in the beaches of Phuket, Thailand :)
