I mean 283 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: that's what I'm telling I live very frugal and we 284 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: can get into it. Yeah, let's talk about it, like, so, 285 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: how do you save money apartment hunting in New York. Well, 286 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: first of all, when I first moved to New York, 287 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: I was staying with family and I applied to every 288 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: lottery that I saw online. What kind of lottery, the 289 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: affordable housing lottery, affordable housing lotteries, so they would have 290 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:48,239 Speaker 1: them listed in the newspapers. But now since it's twenty seventeen, 291 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: they're all like online listed. Yeah, yeah, you can just 292 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: apply that way. So I was actually fortunate. What's the 293 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: income that you have to have the building? It's a 294 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: different they have middle income reason, they have low income lotteries. 295 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: I've actually been rejected because I made one hundred and 296 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: seventy dollars over the amount. Yeah, they're very specific. Then 297 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: you can't make it two dollars over any deposit over 298 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: fifty dollars in my account. I had to explain to them. 299 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: But luckily the time that I was selected, I was 300 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: the half of the year I was unemployed and the 301 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: other half I was unemployed. So I just kind of 302 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: blamed all of the money that I was getting on 303 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: like family donations, and they were assistant. They were like, wow. 304 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: I was like, have you ever been to church and 305 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: the collection play, Yeah, that's what my family is doing. 306 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, that's what they like. They put my rent 307 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: on the prayer list. So I was actually, that's actually 308 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: how I do.

So for the year, 418 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: I believe it's like sixty five dollars, So everybody in 419 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: the family just chips in fide out, That's what I'm saying, Sidney. 420 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: You want to go have Actually, you can do that 421 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: with friends. So even if you don't want to do 422 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: it like the illegal way of just using someone else's card, 423 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: you can't come together now. I mean technically that's not illegal. 424 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: Car not illegal, but I'm just saying, if you want 425 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 1: to be honest, I guess, wait, but where the hell 426 00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: is Cosco?

One week? 517 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: I would get like one hundred and twenty five Hold 518 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: hold what gig? This is all I'm saying, you just 519 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: gotta do your research.

You just dropping that was 522 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: another way so I would do hair, and I do hair, 523 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: so I wasn't just like sitting around. I will find 524 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: other things too, like and my baby said too, this 525 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: is beautiful. So there are a ways to create. It's 526 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: not income that's gonna have you balling, but it's gonna sustain. Listen, 527 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: I will take that for taking pictures of terrible stores. 528 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. That's what I did. Okay, it 529 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,959 Speaker 1: was doable. And and then also I unplug everything so 530 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: like right now at my house so that he not 531 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: on plugged up. No, the only thing that's plugged up 532 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: is the fridge because you know, you don't want to 533 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: unplug your fridge and then your your stove. But if 534 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: I was to travel, say if I was to go 535 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:38,959 Speaker 1: away for over a week, fridge where the stove? It's ridiculous. 536 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: But if my electricity bill every month is below thirty dollars, 537 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: my electricity is included in my rent. So you don't know, 538 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: oh you know what, No, that's not true. My roommate 539 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: paid the electricity because she kept the lights on all day. 540 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: And think it's those little things like the TV. Everything 541 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: is unplugged right now. I keep it unplugged until when 542 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: I get home. I plug it up and from you. Wait, 543 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: where is the plug in for the stove? You gotta 544 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: move it away from you gotta move it away from 545 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: the wall, behind the stove, behind your stove. Okay, so 546 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: behind your stove never apply all the time. I mean, 547 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: you're behind your stove is not dusty at all. There's 548 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: not one dust because you're always constantly going behind it. 549 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: You know, if my stove don't move. First of all, 550 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: you and you laugh at this, But that's why I 551 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: live the life I live, and I'm happy. You're happy. 552 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm happy that I don't have to move 553 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: a stove every week to sweet it's a gas stove. 554 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: I feel like if I'm moving stone. Okay, See that's 555 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: different and it makes a difference. So okay, here's the scenario. 556 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: So you gotta you got a man, y'all hooking up 557 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: right the night before you get up in the morning, 558 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: you gotta get up to push the stove back.
