I could live there alone with maybe an aquarium, but the cats have to
go. But for that moany you can almost buy a mansion here in
Tennessee.
Agreed. But IMHO, anybody who voluntarily lives in Manhattan is insane
by definition. (Of course, maybe they have never been off the island
and simply don't know any better. They did a survey once, and a
surprising percentage of 20-somethings had never been elsewhere. It
just never came up, and since they live at the center of the known
universe, they had no reason to be curious.)
reading the article, they started in the south, moved to jersey, moved to a
new apt in ny, then here. downsizing every time. pretty soon they'll be in a
cardboard box.

pretty soon they'll be in a cardboard box.

I wonder what the maintenance fees are for a cardboard box in
Manhattan.

Didn't The City of New York try some of those hi-tech automated
restrooms at one time? Two legged critters took up residence in
them and turned the program into an expensive boondoggle, that
experience could give you an idea of the cost of upkeep of a tiny
abode in Manhattan. *snicker*
