Expensive Cities

So I spend most of my time in two top 20 most expensive cities in the world: Sydney at number 20 and NYC at number 13. Tokyo and Osaka top the list.

Of course, it’s the real estate prices that do it. Both cities can be damn cheap to eat in, and to buy clothes, and a host of other goods and services. Most expensive leg wax I ever had was in Madison, Wisconsin. Cheapest: right here in NYC. It wasn’t very good, but.

    London’s way up the list. It’s truly, roolly superduper expensive. You’re in a much, much worse situation than me. You have my endless sympathy.

    Goddamn London. If I didn’t love it so much, I’d hate it. Right now I’m running the kind of credit card debt I usually have at the end of the summer after three months of no stipends.
