Everybody in New York has rich parents or is selling drugs 😂😂😂 Agree or disagree?
Summary
Everybody does have rich parents. It is a proven fact," a rider tells Kareem, breaking down the economics of surviving in New York City. His take? You're either trust-fund backed or dealing drugs, because working one job can't cover the $4,200 average rent for a one-bedroom. He calls out the "starving artists" in Bushwick whose dads are secretly CEOs of defense contractors, roasts friends who nickle-and-dime on Ubers after buying rounds of drinks, and insists even the corner delis are selling sandwiches and shrooms just to make rent. Moving green? That's lower middle class. You need the white stuff. He's so broke he hopped the turnstile to save $3.

So what's your take? Everybody in New York has rich parents are selling drugs because how else can you afford this? 100% agree. Everyone does have rich parents. It is a proven fact. Like, oh yeah, you're a starving artist in like Bushwick, and dude, your dad's the CEO of Lockheed Martin. Like, bro, like, okay, Stacy, like, you want me to split the $10 Uber after you bought me hell of drinks? And average rent for a one-bed apartment in New York City is $4,200. Yeah, working one job is not enough. You got to be moving that white, bro. So you either have rich parents or you're moving that white.
Yeah, I don't think green is enough either. If you're selling the green stuff, you're literally like lower middle class, bro. The deli sells the green. They selling sandwiches and weed to try to pay the rent. The deli, the deli, you can buy shrooms from the deli. They got all kind of drugs. That's what I'm trying to say. It's mad expensive in this mother. I had to hop the train today. That's $3. I need like, I might have to rob in here today so I can pay my landlord. That's all I got to say.
