Same, I would much rather a condo. I was going to buy something in Riverdale and didn't because it's all co-ops. Cooperatives and their boards can spike your monthly payments on a whim, "Oh, we decided to build a new age landscape in the the back of the complex. Your maintenance fee is $500 more a month now."

Oh hell nah. But i assume its like a HOA thing?

My initial post simply stated that the mother of a college friend bought a million dollar condo and/ or co-op.

I wouldn't asked a thing if that's all you said. If you didn't follow up with

And yall wonder why I be going so hard. Who you think them kids are???

Then I would have just

But anyway, get your college degree and you can live in NYC too, is clearly the moral of this story.

Why would I need google when I already own his books in hard copy? I was briefly a linguistics major (his original field of study).

But anyway, get your college degree be an academic superstar, the kind that gets recruited like an athlete and flewed out, get a scholarship to an Ivy, and you can live in NYC too, is clearly the moral of this story.

not at all. i can agree with chomsky, acknowledge the complicity of democrats in the economic stratification of our society, and still recognize the moral imperative of stopping a nazi from returning to the white house.

Noam was on some "the unvaxxed deserve to die!" shyt during the pandemic so he's mainstream now.

noam chomsky isn’t stupid; he would never be anti-vaxx.

It’s a trip to think about. Project buildings on one side and on the other side of the bridge multimillion dollar brownstones and apartments

noam chomsky isn’t stupid; he would never be anti-vaxx.

But to wish those who disagree to be ostracized from society was kinda stupid.

[ISO]

That stat seems old when is that statistic from? 1988?

Children's poverty is 19% and overall poverty is 23%

Those co-ops in Riverdale are mid

I've known two people that own units

I don’t know. 40 percent seems kinda high for a city with 8 million people

The wealth disparity in NYC when I was growing up was mostly in Manhattan

If you met a white kid from Manhattan there was a decent chance he was well off

The outer boroughs[im from Queens] didn’t have many rich people aside from a few areas here and there

It was more blue collar/ working class

 

[Wild self]

But Coli heads jumped me when I said that only 10% of all adults living in NYC make over $100k. These Coli heads say everyone is making 6 figures and I must go,away when I pointed out that a lot of,grown folks not even making $60k

 

[King Static X]

I just looked it up. NYC's poverty rate is 23% and children's poverty rate in NYC is 25%.

So that Chomsky claim is false. The poverty rate needs to be lower in general though.
