you pay $1600 rent in Jersey???? wtf??? where do you live?

You sound so incredulous! Were you aware that 7 of NJ's 22 counties (or so) are among the 100 wealthiest/most expensive in the entire country? Hell, 5 of them are top 20.

So with that in mind, I live in Bergen County [/nuffsaid]

(though it'd be the same in Morris and Passaic, too, maybe slightly less)

I live less than 5 miles from both the GW Bridge & the Lincoln Tunnel.

I know there are very expensive parts of Jersey ... especially the parts close to Manhattan ... jsut had this idea that you live close to Philly for some reason

hope its a Tc and not one of those others - which are the ugliest cars EVAR. aside from NADs WRX of course

Of course it's a tC. Did you really expect be to be driving a vehicle that looks like a box of Juicy-Juice?
 
Ha ha, no! I've lived within 10 miles of NYC my entire life, all within either Brooklyn or Bergen Cty.

Though it's worth mentioning that there are several areas outside of Philly (on the NJ side) that are nearly as expensive.
 
i dig those tC cars, except i can't sit in one without my head bumping against the windshield. ugh.
 
yeah, i was looking at a moderate house in an okay neighborhood in a shit town, mortgage would've been $2200 a month. fuuuuuuuuck you.
 
haha, i was checking out a house for $250k, pretty much the cheapest of the cheap out here. oh man, it was a fucking PIT. the neighborhood looked like something out of Escape from LA and the house was about the size of my apartment.
 
BBBBBBWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHAAAAA @ house prices where you guys live. i dont even know what to say to that. you probably have completely different priorities than the rest of us "middlers". $480 here would buy you one of the best houses in one of the best neighborhoods.
