I would challenge you to stay at home for at least the next 6 months. During that time, save $3,000/month. Every month. See how that feels. If you can do that, you can probably spend $2,800 in rent. Also, I don’t know where you live, but if it’s somewhere cold right now - I don’t see any reason to move out in winter. Nothing fun is happening anyway. Wait until summer when you can enjoy your freedom a bit.

I am the biggest fan of the library. A few of my favorites features:

  • Phone calls and emails when my books come in, such a kind and generous thing to do.

  • All the Children’s Activities. Miss Barbara and crew at the Main Branch are absolute gems.

  • LIBBY! I don’t feel like you guys hype Libby enough. Hoopla is cool and all for audiobooks, but I find their selection very limited. Your Libby selection is much larger (and compatible with the kindle so I get to check out eBooks and read them on my Kindle, it’s great!).

Perfect. Skip Hoboken then and come join us in downtown JC. Great parks, good food, quant. I love living somewhere where I have a local butcher shop, fish monger, public library, great cafes, parks, etc. If you want to come visit and see for yourself, look at staying in the Westin Jersey City, Residence Inn, or Canopy. You’ll want to spend time walking along the water, and in Van Vorst and Hamilton Parks.
