> Don't glorify urban living to a fault, blowing money at bars for binge drinking well after college, spending too much on rent to be in a "trendy" area. You shouldn't have an iPhone, iPad, and MacBook and spend $1500/mo to live with 4 roommates, latte for breakfast ($4), buy all your lunches ($10), get dinner at the Whole Foods hot bar ($15) when you make $40k, then complain when you're 30 with a negative net worth!

No one making $40k a year is spending $1500 on rent. This is such a yuppie NYC/SF perspective. Try sitting in actual $40k shoes for a second.
