*Ahhh i'm such an ugly crier haha, what are your thoughts on staying or leaving in nyc this year?* Thank you to my coins who understood I needed to take a day off from last week's upload. I am feeling SO MUCH better after going on a social media purge/cleanse for 2 days and ready to create content for you all. Since I will be starting a new job soon, I will be incorporating videos on money tips when starting out at a new job and also my new move . AHHH so much content to share, excited to share with you all.
Neither NYC or San Francisco are affordable. I can stay in other states or towns for just ~800 a month rent. I don’t have to pay tolls across NYC or SF bridges. I can park my car without fees. (Et cetera.) .
New York is my first love. And your tears touched so many beats to my heart. You are beautiful like the City I love. I just wish I lived there. You have a new subscriber.
Facts. I felt this and started tearing up with you. I went through nearly the same damn thing as you but had to move outta LA. I’m staying with my cousin in NY now and researching everything NY and found this gem of yours. Thank you for sharing🧡😭
I’ve been applying to so many places for a job, setting up zoom interviews about NYC, doing my research, and I may not have savings or credit, but you’ve also inspired me to pursue my NY dream despite everything that’s up against me.
I’m 13 right now and I have a dream to move to New York City when I get out on my own. I will wait 5 years or more. I will wait and be patient. I honestly can’t wait
This made my heart smile:’) I’m almost 21 and will be moving to NYC next summer, I’ve been dreaming of it since I was about your age. Work hard, you will get there. 🤍
I’ve been wanting to make the move from Georgia to New York for almost a decade. This week I finally made the decision to move when my lease is up! This video just affirmed my decision!
Nyc is fast paced and great to visit. To live is another story. You need MONEY!!!!! Im from jersey and travel to ny almost everyday. Traffic, construction blocking the streets, very high prices. No parking and crazy rude Yorkers. I seen it all. Very dense and over populated. Many jobs but hard to get due to overpopulation. So great to visit. Not fun, unless you willing to pay bug bucks just for brights lights and tall buildings
a lot of people say nyc isn’t really the best place to live, not safe, etc. But then again, practically everywhere is unsafe! Especially cities! of course it’s going to be dangerous, so you could always move in with somebody or take precautions leaving alone especially as a girl like for example, don’t go out at night alone, etc! I LOVE nyc! The city is probably so worth visiting or living in. Everything about nyc is so pretty, and there’s so many people that nobody cares who you are, skin color, etc.
I (used) travel a lot for work, and I've been all over the country. There really is no place like NYC. A lot of other places...yeah they are basically the same, but NYC is different. Great video, and good reasons to live in NYC. For me though, I'm quite happy in North Carolina :D
I love hearing that! I’ve been to many cities as well and while a lot of modern cities offer the same experiences, there are rarely many that compare to the energy in NYC
@@joymae Now, I will say, that the most interesting city I've visited in the US, is hands down, New Orleans. Not to say you should live there, but it's definitely a place to visit and is not like any other place in the US. Just sayin
I moved from London, UK to Charleston in 2020 at the onset of the pandemic. Then made the bold move to NYC in in April 2021 after watching some video testimonials including yours. I missed London so much and NYC is the closest american city to that place I called home. The culture & diversity creates the vibrant energy of NYC. I've only been living here for 2 weeks and I already feel like I made the right decision. ❤️
YAYYYY I’m so happy to hear that and love this for you. I hear nyc is very similar to London and I dream of visiting London one day. You should come to the west village I hear it’s very much like England here
Hi Joy! I’ve been thinking about moving since august, I was about to and then backed out because of everyone saying I shouldn’t and my parents advising against it. & I listened to them and stayed in LA and I absolutely regret it. This video just motivated me to really push forward and make my dream of living in NYC a reality. So hopefully I’ll run into you on the streets of NYC in the coming months! Your personality and positivity is electrifying! Congratulations on your new apartment, job, and new chapters ahead! 💛
Omg Nash it’s comments like these that make me so happy to make videos to reach people like you! I totally know what you mean. When I went home to visit my parents I was so bored and felt my freedom and creativity was taken away from me. Yes I would’ve been saving money but what’s the point if you’re not experiencing life?! You have to do what’s best for you!
Hey Joy, thank you for making this video! I just left SoCal for nyc and everyone has been calling me crazy but I am SO HAPPY here so far. Covid or not, there is nothing like ny and I am proud of myself and cry about it too haha
YES STEPH!! Go you!! Mute everyone else’s opinions because they’re just projecting their fears or jealousy onto you! You’re the only one who knows what you want and need so just TRUST that. Continue to cry those tears of happiness because you deserve it. So happy for you.
@@LeonaGaregi I love it so much. I'm in FiDi and it's the perfect feeling of city life and calm. Being right by the water helps the transition from being so close to the ocean in cali haha. The people are awesome too! I'm originally from NJ so California was the big move for me personally and now I feel more at "home". So it may be more of a shock to for you to move here but hopefully in a good way :) What makes you choose Nyc?
@@stephanieganowski That's amazing! I bet California felt like an accomplishment haha. I don't meet a lot of people who move back from CA to NYC so that's great how you love it and are closer to home! Considering NJ is 4 hours from NY I believe? That's like from here to la to vegas lol! Moreover I chose Nyc because I feel like it's the only other city that gets me, or is alive like la, I guess? It's exciting, fast, creative and has no boundaries. I've also lived in la my entire life, so i think now in my early 20's is the best time to switch things up in life:)
You make great points about the people, chasing the dream, food, general life in nyc, etc. It's also understandable to cry because that was your dream and you fought hard and accomplished it.
This video gives me a tingly feeling all over🥰🤗❤. I am 33 and have dreamed of moving to NYC all through college. I settled for SC 🤦🏽♀️🥴 ,but I am going to manifest the courage to move.🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for this video! I will hopefully be moving to NYC in June, coming from England so it'll be quite life changing. So good to hear some positivity, even my American Dad is really negative about the city and it's like I'm not going to retire there I just want to live in an incredibly vibrant and inspiring city for a while:)
Lol omg I totally know what you mean. People act like moving is so permanent. You’re not a tree! If you don’t like it you can move your roots. I heard of someone moving here from England as well. I love the Brits so excited for you to join us!
@@joymae thanks so much mate I'm really excited to graduate and get out there! I should be okay with rent as I'll have a job but that first rent payment / deposit might be a stretch, would it be best for me to live in long island cost wise?
Congrats on the new job! And it's totally a renters market right now. Great time to move into any big city since so many are moving out. Like how you're able to bring out personality in your videos
thank you, i'm excited to start! that's great to hear you feel I have a good balance of personality in my videos...it's something I've been working on.
Thank you for sharing. I was planning my move to NYC and searching on TH-cam and it was discouraging to see everyone basically say “don’t!!!” I went for it and moving in 3 weeks 😊
I love what you said about the seasons.. I’m from philly and couldn’t imagine not having all 4 seasons. It definitely gives you something to always look forward to. Also love what you said that leaders create leaders. Your motivating me to move😭
I freaking love seasons it’s snowing right now and beautiful and part of me also cannot wait for spring and that moment when you drink and iced coffee in the sun and see the flowers bloom it’s magical
I loved your video! I’m moving from San Francisco, California to NY in a few months! Despite the pandemic, I’m looking forward to my new adventure in the big Apple. Thanks for all the tips!
i was raised in az then moved to california, hated both LOL you explained perfectly why and why i want to move to nyc so badly!!! i should hopefully be there by the end of this month and im both terrified and excited.. i wanna finally live a life i want! :D thank u so much for this push
Ahhh I’m big feeling this video right now! I’ve been living at home through this entire pandemic and my life at this point is hell lol. My mental health is at its worst, I’m being underpaid (but trying to be grateful to have a job in my field in my small town!), and I quite honestly feel like I’m at my breaking point. Had a total mental breakdown this week for the first time in my life. Somethings got to give! I’ve gotta make my move. Appreciated this 💛
Oh no!!! I totally can relate. I was there a few months ago when I went to visit my parents and stayed longer bc of covid cases rising and I felt I had no seperation. Before the job I have now I was working a job I was for sure over qualified for and I just sucked it up and stayed positive knowing something better would come soon. Don’t give up ✨
You’re so inspiring!! I’ve been wanting to move to NYC for the longest, to try it out and see if I can really make it. It’s scary though! I want to have that moment (like you) where I just know it was the right decision 😭
Thank you for this video❤️ I’m so happy you didn’t give up!! Thank you for sharing your journey and encouraging others to do the same! I’m from San Diego and planning on making the leap to NYC but have been going back and forth if I should make the move. Thank you!
Omg thank you! I’m from San Diego as well! It’s really scary especially if you don’t know many people on this part of the world but you’ll learn so much about yourself and what you want and don’t want from it
This is the most genius affirmation video on the entire TH-cam. I can't thank you enough for this. I couldn't help but shed some tears while watching it at work, but I'm grateful to have found your channel. And I love how you speak--the vibe, intonation, and everything--which makes watching your content even more like a treat. I'm planning to move to NYC from Seoul, Korea myself. At the moment, I don't got no citizenship, visa, or work permit but that's perfect for moving to New York City, where so many of the people are born all over and outside the country, right?
Thank you!!! And congrats on starting the new chapter in your life. Shockingly, I find myself enjoying NYC winters over NYC summers...so I am happy it's cold again. Where are you off to next?
Joy Mae - Millennial Money Talk staying her for the next year and then probably back to Miami (where I’m from) 💛💃🏽 I love NYC, but I love the beach more 😅 always surprised when people like the NYC winter!
Thanks for sharing this with us Joy, and I can definitely understand not wanting to move back home and risking a lot of different things with your parents. However, I think you're making the right decision because New York (and the east coast in general coughcough) has so much to offer. Congrats on the new job, and you definitely deserve to enjoy your life and all the different things that New York can give you. I liked this more-candid style of video though -- definitely give us an update after a little bit on the job 🙏
Thanks Ryan!!! I couldn’t bare the guilt of my parents got super sick because of me. And now we can still be east coast youtube friends! I’ll def start making more videos of starting at a new job etc so I’ll let you know!
Thanks so much for this video!!! I was that risk-taker not stuck up girl that decided to move here from Florida in the middle of the pandemic😂 and this video is so much more reassuring 2 weeks in. Made me feel like I made the best choice ever, ugh love!!!!
I'm a gay man, not really attractive or anything. I've always enjoyed every minute of my time whenever I visit NYC and have always wanted to live there. I think now is my time to take the leap of faith and move there - thanks for inspiring me!!
There's no place on earth that I've ever felt more free. I'm beginning to talk to my realtor about selling my house in DC or renting it all out as an investment property and taking the leap for NYC - I'm scared. It's a hard city but I ask myself "Has anything ever been easy for me in my life or have I ever gotten anything easy that's worth it before - the answer is NO... so I'll just keep adding to my list of conquests!"
I GRABBED MY TEAAAAAA!!! Glad you took some time for yourself, it's a lot of your plate on top of changes with your new job and a new move! I hope you feel refreshed! Loved all your points, I can't imagine dating in a smaller area. I've lived my whole life from a kid to an adult in a city, idk what I would honestly not do in a city. ALSO your taste buds and your health!!!!!! #1 I walk everywhere in a city. #2 My parents live in the burbs now and every time I go visit them and we try to eat out I'm like YOOOO WHERE'S THE FOOD 😆😅 Great video Joy can't wait to hear about your new adventures!
Omg yes my parents live in the burbs in San Francisco so I feel if I needed an escape I could always. I also love getting a rental car and driving into the country on the weekends in New York #PSLseason. My break was needed and necessary thank you for saying that I feel ready to pump out content again so get ready for some NYC work content
I really really, appreciate your honest presence and focused mental state about this! I have tried NY, And, My tears came as I left! There is something thriving and sexy,about New York! But, It is just, So hard and sometimes lonely, when you are trying to be a New Yorker ! I am not one until I am successful as a New Yorker! Stay Safe 👌 🌃....
"In New York the opportunities for learning, and acquiring a culture that shall not come out of the ruins, but belong to life, are probably greater than anywhere in the world." - Thomas Wolfe
Joy, I'm really gonna do it... discussed it with my friend tonight who lives in NYC. He said there's no need to leave my job cold Turkey to job hunt in NYC when I can keep my job in DC & commute via Amtrak to NYC daily. I can do this until I find an NYC JOB!! I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time. I'm gonna be apartment hunting soon!! Harlem, Astoria, Williamsburgh here I come - anywhere just once it's close to a subway!!
Aw thanks Sandy! Your first year in nyc I feel is the hardest and biggest growth period. I didn’t think I would learn about myself and grow so much in a small amount of time.
I’m from the Caribbean , I saw a sad post on fb that led me here because I loved vacationing in nyc. But I fell in love with the old charm and traditional parts of nyc. I’m so happy to hear ur perspective !!!!!!! Thank u for sharing and congrats 😍😍😍
As what was the sad post on FB about?! Was my video tagged on it? Happy to hear you saw a different perspective. That’s my goal with these videos is to show that NYC is not dead and very much alive and well ❤️
@@joymae oh no it was a vid showing how “bad” nyc is.... and I felt sad so I came here to see if anyone posted who was living in nyc to get an idea of how things really are jic - ur perspective was refreshing
First video of yours I'm watching but ugly crying with you girl! So proud and I don't even know you lol. I'm thinking about moving out there once I save a bit more. Thanks for the info, keep doing what your doing!
Omg Zoë you are too sweet!!! I am so happy you found me and I believe in you that you can make it happen. Welcome to the coinmunity and hope to see you in future videos :)
@@joymae Thanks girl! Glad to be apart of it, binging on your financial videos to get me to NYC sooner than later lol. Added you on IG, I’m @zoecocobeauty . Cheering you on from FL 👋
Hi thanks for sharing i am from Toronto - super busy similar vibe to NYC and i can tell you all the points you made are bang on trying to relate to Toronto!
Great video. My lease was up earlier this year and I planned on moving to NYC or Miami. I have been to both cities. I moved to Miami as it is less of a lockdown here. But now I still feel like NYC is where I am supposed to be. LOL. Now I am thinking of moving again before my lease is up in June before prices go up again.
@@angelina8570 Take it from me, do NYC. I did Miami for a year and now I'm moving into my new NYC apartment this week. I'm going to make video on the pros and cons.
omg if that statistic is true about 70% vacancies that is INSANE. I definitely need to do some research on that. (just did a bit of research while finishing watching your video 🥰 and it seems like it is now 10% vacancy! thats still crazy because its usually around 4ish%) but these viewpoints are cool because most people think the opposite at this time and are leaving NYC. I live in north New Jersey so actually so many people are coming here to leave the city but still have access to the city. and "your taste buds will thank you" 😂🤣 thats true facts haha.
"Renters market!" Ding, ding, ding! Great advice! Congrats on the new Job! 😂 I do miss the food in NY 😂 don't miss the subway and that layer of grim you get on your skin everyday. You are right there is nothing like NY! Had some of the most memorable times in my life there! Great video Joy!!
Aw thanks FREESPUR, can always count on you to watch all my different types of videos. I had no idea you lived in NYC as well. The grim layer on my skin I feel is hiding my stress wrinkles this year has given me LOL
Neither NYC or San Francisco are affordable. I can stay in other states or towns for just ~800 a month rent. I don’t have to pay tolls across NYC or SF bridges. I can park my car without fees. (Et cetera.) .
That’s great! Most places are reasonable to live in, but this video are for those who have dreams of living in the city. I always say you pay for the amenities the cities have to offer. You get what you pay for. As for tolls, I don’t drive in the city and take either Uber/Lyft (cheap in SF) or I take the subway in nyc/bike (very affordable)
Love this! NY will always and forever be my favorite U.S city🤗 Yessss! For manifesting I’m a firm believer in manifesting whatever I want! ✨🙌🏽✨Thanks for sharing !new supporter here ! Notifications on 😀
Joy, I love this video. I love New York and i totally agree NEW YORK will ALWAYS be HERE. I also got another job in NYC too and will be moving to an apt there soon
Thank you for this video. You made me cry but in a good way 🥲, I needed to hear this. Bless you, I'd like to one day meet you when I moved to the big apple 🍎
I just stumbled on your channel. I like your videos are you going to start creating some more anytime soon? I live in Milwaukee and have had a dream of moving to NYC for a long time. I just got a job at Lifetime Fitness in Brookfield, WI. I have worked in the fitness industry for 10 years and I applied there because I know they can help me to eventually transfer to NYC at a Lifetime out there.
Hey Jay Thanks so much! And congrats on the new gig. I make videos every week and post normally on Sunday, but try to post twice on Friday too. This past week has been crazy so I haven’t had time. But you should expect that! I hope you make it out here.
Hi Joy, I just discovered your videos and love how real you are and how you're so straight up with the facts!! I live in SF and have grown up in the Bay Area my whole life and I'm thinking about moving to NY sometime towards the end of the year. As someone in my early 20s, which boroughs do you think are the best ones to live in for the young adult typa social life?
Ayeeee Bay Area!!!!! Ah, I miss real Mexican food, pls bring me a real 🌯 that’s so exciting I’m stoked for you! NYC is perfect for someone in their early twenties, it all really depends on what you like to do but most young people I know hang out in lower manhattan or Brooklyn (Williamsburg)!!!
oOOO im intrigued what neighborhood you had in mind since im from here! But totally understand you dont want stalkers HAHAHH. I'm so happy I've been in nyc since the pandemic started
I just made a promise to myself that I won’t stick around and I want to move out state and New York is the place. I’m a junior I high school and will start planning after high school
I need to visit New York! I don't know if I like the crowds so I will just visit. When I was in Hong Kong for 1st time, I had a culture and crowd stock. haha
Got a little emotional at the end of the video myself. Joy I'm so proud of the life you have created for yourself in New York! Good motivation to keep chasing your dreams!
Aw thank me Jim for watching until the end. I was scared to post the clip but figured it someone stayed until the end they must get value from the video lol thanks for all the support.
My dream one day is to move to New York for acting. I have already been in a few movies. And I’m from a small town. There isn’t much to do here. When I went to visit New York. I didn’t want to leave 😩.
I am so glad that you made it. At the end of the video, I felt your heart. However, here is a perspective that simply relates to a majority that won't admit it. You are a privileged millennial who probably makes more than 60k a year! 1. rent: People who cant afford 2200 a month, probably can't afford 1800 either! rent is down, but not enough to be affordable to the majority of people who actually work in NYC! 2. Career: Me, 20 years working on the same job, make about 59K. Graduated from college, etc. I actually like my job, but I can't afford the rent to live by myself. 3. Social life: I am an introvert. I always was, and always will. 4. Dating life: I am an introvert, and found those relationships to be expensive and not ideal, for me. 5. Taste buds: I guess is a matter of opinion. I find that the good stuff is way too expensive, and therefore overrated. 6. Health: What if your parents are in NYC, and that is your home? You may live with them because you can't afford to be on your own... 7. If you find the memorial as culture, oh my! Culture out of a tragedy. 8. Less crowded is due to a pandemic, and it should be a concern if it continues! 9. Global warming is making the seasons almost unbearable and frankly quite expensive. 10. Leaders!! OMG! I guess you voted for Trump, and think that the mayor is doing a great job. WOW! I appreciate you because you appear to be a nice person who has overcome. Unfortunately, NYC hasn't been ideal even before the pandemic. This is from someone who lived here for over 35 years!
Actually I didn’t have a job the majority of my time in NYC. I’m an introvert and find culture in the history/architecture/culture/and arts of NYC. Thank you for the comment but you only know the surface!
Philly > NYC. JUST SAYIN'. Just subscribed to your channel, thanks for this nice little tour of NYC while talking up the reasons for moving here. I just wish NY were more affordable in general. I would worry about moving there *now* and seeing the rental market spike back up soon.
Girl that’s why you need to come now! The rent is reasonable compared to what it was before; however, it’ll never be affordable. I hear great things about Philly I’ll make sure to get out there soon.
@@joymae Well anytime you are in town, feel free to reach out! In the meantime I'll happily show off Philly in my videos for you and maybe I can showcase how it compares to NYC.
I think the universe is tellin me to move to ny I say that because for a year straight all I see in NC is ny license plates I see over 10 ny plate a week here on top of that everyone I meet is from Brooklyn ny literally in one week I met 5 different ppl from Brooklyn I hear ny everywhere I was at work went into my resident room and seen he was watching cartoon on the cartoon it was talkin about visiting/moving to ny I did apply for job just because the pay was 30 an hour they actually call me the next day about the job but I was too scared to make the move u think all this a sign that I need to move there ?? Plus I had a cousin out of nowhere told me I should move to ny and she help me get an apartment n job is this a sign ??
Me 16 living in England dreaming to move to NYC when I'm older but I'm scared because it's going to be difficult with getting work and green cards etcetera but we move we can do it

Nyc is fast paced and great to visit. To live is another story. You need MONEY!!!!! Im from jersey and travel to ny almost everyday. Traffic, construction blocking the streets, very high prices.

It's exciting, fast, creative and has no boundaries. I've also lived in la my entire life, so i think now in my early 20's is the best time to switch things up in life:)
You make great points about the people, chasing the dream, food, general life in nyc, etc. It's also understandable to cry because that was your dream and you fought hard and accomplished it.
Thank you!!!!
Congrats Joy, as long as you are feeling comfortable in NYC. Welcome!
Yes thanks so much❤️
This video gives me a tingly feeling all over🥰🤗❤. I am 33 and have dreamed of moving to NYC all through college. I settled for SC 🤦🏽♀️🥴 ,but I am going to manifest the courage to move.🙏🙏🙏
YES GIRL!!! It’s never too late. I’m so happy to hear that :)
Thank you so much for this video! I will hopefully be moving to NYC in June, coming from England so it'll be quite life changing. So good to hear some positivity, even my American Dad is really negative about the city and it's like I'm not going to retire there I just want to live in an incredibly vibrant and inspiring city for a while:)
Lol omg I totally know what you mean. People act like moving is so permanent. You’re not a tree! If you don’t like it you can move your roots. I heard of someone moving here from England as well. I love the Brits so excited for you to join us!
@@joymae thanks so much mate I'm really excited to graduate and get out there! I should be okay with rent as I'll have a job but that first rent payment / deposit might be a stretch, would it be best for me to live in long island cost wise?
you're adorbs btw, thanks for this!
Congrats on the new job! And it's totally a renters market right now. Great time to move into any big city since so many are moving out. Like how you're able to bring out personality in your videos
thank you, i'm excited to start! that's great to hear you feel I have a good balance of personality in my videos...it's something I've been working on.
Thank you for sharing. I was planning my move to NYC and searching on TH-cam and it was discouraging to see everyone basically say “don’t!!!” I went for it and moving in 3 weeks 😊
YES YES YES
I love what you said about the seasons.. I’m from philly and couldn’t imagine not having all 4 seasons. It definitely gives you something to always look forward to. Also love what you said that leaders create leaders. Your motivating me to move😭
I freaking love seasons it’s snowing right now and beautiful and part of me also cannot wait for spring and that moment when you drink and iced coffee in the sun and see the flowers bloom it’s magical
moving back to NYC ... this is the moment to do it. before it gets too busy and is more competitive.
That’s it you’re smart!
I loved your video! I’m moving from San Francisco, California to NY in a few months! Despite the pandemic, I’m looking forward to my new adventure in the big Apple. Thanks for all the tips!
Omg yay!!! Congrats!! You are absolutely going to love it. Have you thought what neighborhood or burough to live in?
I am also I’ve lived there before but ready for this new adventure even though it’s mid pandemic
i was raised in az then moved to california, hated both LOL you explained perfectly why and why i want to move to nyc so badly!!! i should hopefully be there by the end of this month and im both terrified and excited.. i wanna finally live a life i want! :D thank u so much for this push
Omgosh I hope it happens soon
Ahhh I’m big feeling this video right now! I’ve been living at home through this entire pandemic and my life at this point is hell lol. My mental health is at its worst, I’m being underpaid (but trying to be grateful to have a job in my field in my small town!), and I quite honestly feel like I’m at my breaking point. Had a total mental breakdown this week for the first time in my life. Somethings got to give! I’ve gotta make my move. Appreciated this 💛
Oh no!!! I totally can relate. I was there a few months ago when I went to visit my parents and stayed longer bc of covid cases rising and I felt I had no seperation. Before the job I have now I was working a job I was for sure over qualified for and I just sucked it up and stayed positive knowing something better would come soon. Don’t give up ✨
new york is my favorite city in the world. i love the dating life in NYC and the way everyone's taste is met
You’re so inspiring!! I’ve been wanting to move to NYC for the longest, to try it out and see if I can really make it. It’s scary though! I want to have that moment (like you) where I just know it was the right decision 😭
OMG CRYING!!!! You can do it! Seriously the worst case you gave it a shot and move back home or to another place. DO IT
@@joymae That’s so true. My time will come!!
Thank you for this video❤️ I’m so happy you didn’t give up!! Thank you for sharing your journey and encouraging others to do the same! I’m from San Diego and planning on making the leap to NYC but have been going back and forth if I should make the move. Thank you!
Omg thank you! I’m from San Diego as well! It’s really scary especially if you don’t know many people on this part of the world but you’ll learn so much about yourself and what you want and don’t want from it
This is the most genius affirmation video on the entire TH-cam. I can't thank you enough for this. I couldn't help but shed some tears while watching it at work, but I'm grateful to have found your channel. And I love how you speak--the vibe, intonation, and everything--which makes watching your content even more like a treat. I'm planning to move to NYC from Seoul, Korea myself. At the moment, I don't got no citizenship, visa, or work permit but that's perfect for moving to New York City, where so many of the people are born all over and outside the country, right?
Congrats on the new job!! Staying in NYC this year buttt after being here 6 years my winter avoidant self is ready to go.
Thank you!!! And congrats on starting the new chapter in your life. Shockingly, I find myself enjoying NYC winters over NYC summers...so I am happy it's cold again. Where are you off to next?
Joy Mae - Millennial Money Talk staying her for the next year and then probably back to Miami (where I’m from) 💛💃🏽 I love NYC, but I love the beach more 😅 always surprised when people like the NYC winter!
Thanks for sharing this with us Joy, and I can definitely understand not wanting to move back home and risking a lot of different things with your parents. However, I think you're making the right decision because New York (and the east coast in general coughcough) has so much to offer. Congrats on the new job, and you definitely deserve to enjoy your life and all the different things that New York can give you. I liked this more-candid style of video though -- definitely give us an update after a little bit on the job 🙏
Thanks Ryan!!! I couldn’t bare the guilt of my parents got super sick because of me. And now we can still be east coast youtube friends! I’ll def start making more videos of starting at a new job etc so I’ll let you know!
Thanks so much for this video!!! I was that risk-taker not stuck up girl that decided to move here from Florida in the middle of the pandemic😂 and this video is so much more reassuring 2 weeks in. Made me feel like I made the best choice ever, ugh love!!!!
WAIT YES I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!! Yes to not being a snobby girl!
Yes
This video is so real. I feel like this right now , video is an inspiration for my move 2 NYC
Thank you. I made it when I first started making videos so it’s probably super raw
YOU. ARE. MY. BOOOOOOOO BOOOOOOO!!! I needed to see this! Love this video so much!!! I’m moving girl! You just wait!!! ❤️😍😍😍
Yes Queen do it
@@joymae ❤️✨
I'm a gay man, not really attractive or anything. I've always enjoyed every minute of my time whenever I visit NYC and have always wanted to live there. I think now is my time to take the leap of faith and move there - thanks for inspiring me!!
YAAAAYYYY i love hearing that you will love it
There's no place on earth that I've ever felt more free. I'm beginning to talk to my realtor about selling my house in DC or renting it all out as an investment property and taking the leap for NYC - I'm scared. It's a hard city but I ask myself "Has anything ever been easy for me in my life or have I ever gotten anything easy that's worth it before - the answer is NO... so I'll just keep adding to my list of conquests!"
I GRABBED MY TEAAAAAA!!! Glad you took some time for yourself, it's a lot of your plate on top of changes with your new job and a new move! I hope you feel refreshed! Loved all your points, I can't imagine dating in a smaller area. I've lived my whole life from a kid to an adult in a city, idk what I would honestly not do in a city. ALSO your taste buds and your health!!!!!! #1 I walk everywhere in a city. #2 My parents live in the burbs now and every time I go visit them and we try to eat out I'm like YOOOO WHERE'S THE FOOD 😆😅 Great video Joy can't wait to hear about your new adventures!
Omg yes my parents live in the burbs in San Francisco so I feel if I needed an escape I could always. I also love getting a rental car and driving into the country on the weekends in New York #PSLseason. My break was needed and necessary thank you for saying that I feel ready to pump out content again so get ready for some NYC work content
I really really, appreciate your honest presence and focused mental state about this! I have tried NY, And, My tears came as I left! There is something thriving and sexy,about New York! But, It is just, So hard and sometimes lonely, when you are trying to be a New Yorker ! I am not one until I am successful as a New Yorker! Stay Safe 👌 🌃....
Thank you your journey was impactful in your own way. I’m happy you had that experience
"In New York the opportunities for learning, and acquiring a culture that shall not come out of the ruins, but belong to life, are probably greater than anywhere in the world."

Joy, I'm really gonna do it... discussed it with my friend tonight who lives in NYC. He said there's no need to leave my job cold Turkey to job hunt in NYC when I can keep my job in DC & commute via Amtrak to NYC daily. I can do this until I find an NYC JOB!! I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time. I'm gonna be apartment hunting soon!! Harlem, Astoria, Williamsburgh here I come - anywhere just once it's close to a subway!!
Omg Ray that is so exciting!!! Can your job allow you to be remote? Then you shouldn’t have an issue working east coast hours in nyc!
@@joymae Yes, I will also be working remote for the time being!
There you go!! The universe was on your side. CONGRATS!!! I would def live in Williamsburg if you’re looking on the east side.
I’m glad to see you have grown! I had to like the video before watching because I knew it was going to be good!!
Aw thanks Sandy! Your first year in nyc I feel is the hardest and biggest growth period. I didn’t think I would learn about myself and grow so much in a small amount of time.
I’m from the Caribbean , I saw a sad post on fb that led me here because I loved vacationing in nyc. But I fell in love with the old charm and traditional parts of nyc. I’m so happy to hear ur perspective !!!!!!! Thank u for sharing and congrats 😍😍😍
As what was the sad post on FB about?! Was my video tagged on it?
Happy to hear you saw a different perspective. That’s my goal with these videos is to show that NYC is not dead and very much alive and well ❤️
@@joymae oh no it was a vid showing how “bad” nyc is.... and I felt sad so I came here to see if anyone posted who was living in nyc to get an idea of how things really are jic - ur perspective was refreshing
First video of yours I'm watching but ugly crying with you girl! So proud and I don't even know you lol. I'm thinking about moving out there once I save a bit more. Thanks for the info, keep doing what your doing!
Omg Zoë you are too sweet!!! I am so happy you found me and I believe in you that you can make it happen. Welcome to the coinmunity and hope to see you in future videos :)
@@joymae Thanks girl! Glad to be apart of it, binging on your financial videos to get me to NYC sooner than later lol. Added you on IG, I’m @zoecocobeauty . Cheering you on from FL 👋
Hi thanks for sharing i am from Toronto - super busy similar vibe to NYC and i can tell you all the points you made are bang on trying to relate to Toronto!
Oh wow I’ve always wanted to visit Toronto it’s such a great city! Hopefully when Canada opens its borders again.
The price for apartments right now is insane! You can *no joke* find a decent 2BR apt in Brooklyn for 2k!! A renter's paradise 💘
I know it’s crazy. I was thinking of Brooklyn after my lease is up.
Great video. My lease was up earlier this year and I planned on moving to NYC or Miami. I have been to both cities. I moved to Miami as it is less of a lockdown here. But now I still feel like NYC is where I am supposed to be. LOL. Now I am thinking of moving again before my lease is up in June before prices go up again.
NYC isn’t locked down at all. It’s just the media making it look that way. People still out. Restaurants still packed. Life still moving along.
@@joymae Exactly why I don't pay attention to the media much any more.
Same here! I can’t decide between nyc and miami. I love both but I kinda have the feeling nyc is better for me.
@@angelina8570 Take it from me, do NYC. I did Miami for a year and now I'm moving into my new NYC apartment this week. I'm going to make video on the pros and cons.
omg if that statistic is true about 70% vacancies that is INSANE. I definitely need to do some research on that. (just did a bit of research while finishing watching your video 🥰 and it seems like it is now 10% vacancy! thats still crazy because its usually around 4ish%) but these viewpoints are cool because most people think the opposite at this time and are leaving NYC. I live in north New Jersey so actually so many people are coming here to leave the city but still have access to the city. and "your taste buds will thank you" 😂🤣 thats true facts haha.
Omg no way I hear great things about jersey city and Hoboken! I love my taste buds these days
This is amazing I love this video. I will move there in 2 years. That's the GOAL. That's the DREAM!!!
YES GO OUT AND DO IT
"Renters market!" Ding, ding, ding! Great advice! Congrats on the new Job! 😂 I do miss the food in NY 😂 don't miss the subway and that layer of grim you get on your skin everyday. You are right there is nothing like NY! Had some of the most memorable times in my life there! Great video Joy!!
Aw thanks FREESPUR, can always count on you to watch all my different types of videos. I had no idea you lived in NYC as well. The grim layer on my skin I feel is hiding my stress wrinkles this year has given me LOL
Congratulations✨✨
I’m a non US citizen and it’s my dream to move to New York . I’ve been manifesting this since September
Thanks I know you’ll make it happen!
Congrats on your new job!! So glad you're staying in NYC too because there's literally nowhere else like here
Aw thank you France!! I’m really happy I stayed too
I'm from southern california and I've dreamt of living in nyc my whole life this video solidified that :) thank you
Girl do it what do you have to lose
damn that last 2 minutes got super real, proud that you made it through the darkness
Thank you! It was hard but I’m happy it happened so I could get to where I am today :)
Neither NYC or San Francisco are affordable. I can stay in other states or towns for just ~800 a month rent. I don’t have to pay tolls across NYC or SF bridges. I can park my car without fees. (Et cetera.)
.
That’s great! Most places are reasonable to live in, but this video are for those who have dreams of living in the city. I always say you pay for the amenities the cities have to offer. You get what you pay for. As for tolls, I don’t drive in the city and take either Uber/Lyft (cheap in SF) or I take the subway in nyc/bike (very affordable)
Love this! NY will always and forever be my favorite U.S city🤗 Yessss! For manifesting I’m a firm believer in manifesting whatever I want! ✨🙌🏽✨Thanks for sharing !new supporter here ! Notifications on 😀
Awww thanks Queen!!! I love hearing this
@@joymae YW💕
I love this video so much. I’m moving in may and I’m so excited.
THATS MY BIRTHDAY MONTH HELL YESS GIRL
Joy, I love this video. I love New York and i totally agree NEW YORK will ALWAYS be HERE. I also got another job in NYC too and will be moving to an apt there soon
OMG YAY CONGRATS GIRL!!! I’m so happy for you and for you to unlock the BEST CHAPTER OF YOUR LIFE! You’re going to crush that job and love it.
Omg
I was not expecting this video to
Get deep . That was beautiful
I didn’t either until the end of filming!! Thank you
i love this so much, thank you for making this video! moving to NY in march and so happy to have found your channel
Omg yay congrats!!! I’m so excited for you
This is the best video I've ever watched on moving to nyc
Omg you’re gonna make me cry 😭
😘😘
Oh my goodness, tempting me with a good time! I totally would move to New York in a heartbeat!
Yes do it
"If you follow your heart just right, it will get you to New York City."
Thank you for this video. You made me cry but in a good way 🥲, I needed to hear this. Bless you, I'd like to one day meet you when I moved to the big apple 🍎
Awww I’m happy you found this video I hope you move here soon
Omg! You are so amazing Joy!!!!! I need to meet you one day and get your autograph 😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awww you’re so funny hahha
@@joymae I absolutely love how you put this video together.
Congrats on the job. The Big Apple is def a hot spot!
Thank you!!!
I’m doing iiiittttt!!! Aww Joy love you 😘
I just stumbled on your channel. I like your videos are you going to start creating some more anytime soon? I live in Milwaukee and have had a dream of moving to NYC for a long time. I just got a job at Lifetime Fitness in Brookfield, WI. I have worked in the fitness industry for 10 years and I applied there because I know they can help me to eventually transfer to NYC at a Lifetime out there.
Hey Jay Thanks so much! And congrats on the new gig. I make videos every week and post normally on Sunday, but try to post twice on Friday too. This past week has been crazy so I haven’t had time. But you should expect that! I hope you make it out here.
So proud of you. Great video 👍🏾
Thank you 🥰
Hi Joy, I just discovered your videos and love how real you are and how you're so straight up with the facts!! I live in SF and have grown up in the Bay Area my whole life and I'm thinking about moving to NY sometime towards the end of the year. As someone in my early 20s, which boroughs do you think are the best ones to live in for the young adult typa social life?
Ayeeee Bay Area!!!!! Ah, I miss real Mexican food, pls bring me a real 🌯 that’s so exciting I’m stoked for you! NYC is perfect for someone in their early twenties, it all really depends on what you like to do but most young people I know hang out in lower manhattan or Brooklyn (Williamsburg)!!!
@@joymae i got you!! haha cool thanks!! :-)
omg yes yes move to the big city! I moved to downtown SF during peak illness hours and everything is so cheap here :p
Awww SF! My old stomping grounds. Which neighborhood did you opt in for?
@@joymae downtown :P SoMa just got a huge grant to clean it up and make it nice so here’s to hoping it’s way nicer in the next few years!!
"Somewhere between living and dreaming, there's New York."
i love new york and everything it has to offer so this was such a great video!
Thanks Jenny. I do too!! Have you been recently or do you live here now?
I live in nj so i always commute to ny for school! also the rest of my family loves in ny :)
Thank you for sharing and for inspiring me. When I move to New York, hopefully we can meet up for drinks or something! haha :)
omg yes!!! cocktails is a must! come here soon
"I was born very far from where I'm supposed to be. So, I guess I'm on my way home."
oOOO im intrigued what neighborhood you had in mind since im from here! But totally understand you dont want stalkers HAHAHH. I'm so happy I've been in nyc since the pandemic started
haha, I really wish I could share with you guys. we'll see!!! and yes I saw you go to columbia! did you start classes already?
Joy Mae - Millennial Money Talk I go to Cornell! Yea we started three weeks ago
Planning to move to New York in 2022!
Congrats!
@@joymae thank you getting college done and then starting off fresh in NYC 😊
That’ll be a great way to start your adult life and I’m sure the city will get back to “normal” by then
Ms. Joy, please also do stand up
Oh man stand up sounds scary but I love a good mic 🎤
@@joymae You have the 90's it factor for sure ;)
I love your LOA trick! Don’t ever say or show your neighborhood, stay safe! (I lol’d at TechLead thing. 😂)
Hey tech lead is a boss!!!! And yes not showing my neighborhood
I just made a promise to myself that I won’t stick around and I want to move out state and New York is the place. I’m a junior I high school and will start planning after high school
THERE YOU GOOO
Thanks Joy! This video was really genuine
I’m happy to hear that
I need to visit New York! I don't know if I like the crowds so I will just visit. When I was in Hong Kong for 1st time, I had a culture and crowd stock. haha
Got a little emotional at the end of the video myself. Joy I'm so proud of the life you have created for yourself in New York! Good motivation to keep chasing your dreams!
Well it’s the perfect time for you to come now!!! It’s the perfect amount of people.
Aw thank me Jim for watching until the end. I was scared to post the clip but figured it someone stayed until the end they must get value from the video lol thanks for all the support.
Lol you make me wanna come to New York 😆 Looking out for your vlog contents
Aww haha no way!! I love hearing that
I plan on moving there in the next few years. Awesome video!
Yay!!! Excited for you.
moving to the bronx from LA whoo hoo!!
Congrats!
I’m moving to NYC in Fall 2021 (have to graduate first guys😂) 😭 I’m so nervous & excited.
OMG yay congrats you’re going to love it!!!
@@joymae thank you 😊
I live in Canada, and I would love to live in NYC.
Come down under!
My dream one day is to move to New York for acting. I have already been in a few movies. And I’m from a small town. There isn’t much to do here. When I went to visit New York. I didn’t want to leave 😩.
Omgggg girl I know how you feel! Do it and make your dreams a reality!!!
i love this
Aw thank you for watching!!
I am so glad that you made it. At the end of the video, I felt your heart. However, here is a perspective that simply relates to a majority that won't admit it. You are a privileged millennial who probably makes more than 60k a year!
1. rent: People who cant afford 2200 a month, probably can't afford 1800 either! rent is down, but not enough to be affordable to the majority of people who actually work in NYC!
2. Career: Me, 20 years working on the same job, make about 59K. Graduated from college, etc. I actually like my job, but I can't afford the rent to live by myself.
3. Social life: I am an introvert. I always was, and always will.
4. Dating life: I am an introvert, and found those relationships to be expensive and not ideal, for me.
5. Taste buds: I guess is a matter of opinion. I find that the good stuff is way too expensive, and therefore overrated.
6. Health: What if your parents are in NYC, and that is your home? You may live with them because you can't afford to be on your own...
7. If you find the memorial as culture, oh my! Culture out of a tragedy.
8. Less crowded is due to a pandemic, and it should be a concern if it continues!
9. Global warming is making the seasons almost unbearable and frankly quite expensive.
10. Leaders!! OMG! I guess you voted for Trump, and think that the mayor is doing a great job. WOW!
I appreciate you because you appear to be a nice person who has overcome. Unfortunately, NYC hasn't been ideal even before the pandemic. This is from someone who lived here for over 35 years!
Actually I didn’t have a job the majority of my time in NYC. I’m an introvert and find culture in the history/architecture/culture/and arts of NYC. Thank you for the comment but you only know the surface!
@@joymae Ok, I stand corrected. Can you share with us how you could afford to rent in NYC when you didn't have a job?
Happy to! I worked random jobs while running my own coaching business and TH-cam. Video coming soon.
@@joymae Look forward to it. I like your spirit.
I'm considering doing it once I save money, and I'm not scared to resort to shelters either. I think I could do it.
Girl try the hostels first before the shelters
@@joymae I'm a guy and have had a crazy life, I think I could do it. But yea I'm going to save 5k and move.
I don't know anything about NY. Thanks for sharing 😊
👍🏼
Philly > NYC. JUST SAYIN'. Just subscribed to your channel, thanks for this nice little tour of NYC while talking up the reasons for moving here. I just wish NY were more affordable in general. I would worry about moving there *now* and seeing the rental market spike back up soon.
Girl that’s why you need to come now! The rent is reasonable compared to what it was before; however, it’ll never be affordable. I hear great things about Philly I’ll make sure to get out there soon.
@@joymae Well anytime you are in town, feel free to reach out! In the meantime I'll happily show off Philly in my videos for you and maybe I can showcase how it compares to NYC.
I never been to Philly or NYC. Always wanted to visit.
@@SNOWQueen87-v1g You totally should, after the pandemic. Both cities are super vibrant and so, SO fun!
just subscribed; signed, 55 and moving to my dream state
WHAT CONGRATS GIRLY
I LOVE YOU!!! YOU'RE DOING IT RIGHT GIRL
Thank you Riley!!!
What’s the average cost of living in the heart of New York
3000+ a month
I think the universe is tellin me to move to ny I say that because for a year straight all I see in NC is ny license plates I see over 10 ny plate a week here on top of that everyone I meet is from Brooklyn ny literally in one week I met 5 different ppl from Brooklyn I hear ny everywhere I was at work went into my resident room and seen he was watching cartoon on the cartoon it was talkin about visiting/moving to ny I did apply for job just because the pay was 30 an hour they actually call me the next day about the job but I was too scared to make the move u think all this a sign that I need to move there ?? Plus I had a cousin out of nowhere told me I should move to ny and she help me get an apartment n job is this a sign ??
Omg YES GIRL it’s a sign!!! Take the next step with that job interview and make a final decision once it’s all offered and signed.
I love you. I’m coming in November from toronto 😅
Congrats! I’m so excited for you and thank you :)

Holy crap, I love your videos
🥺🥺🥺🥺
@@joymae These are positive emojis, yeah? I can't tell
Can you believe I’ve never been to NY. I was planning on going Spring Break but then COViD happened 😢
Omg no way!!! I didn’t go for my first time until I was 25 so it’s def not weird if you haven’t. Do you live close by?
I’m thinking of moving to ny at the end of the year. Hope it’s still somewhat easy to find a place then
It’s reopening back but I think you should still be set. Winter is a good time to move because there is less competition
Me 16 living in England dreaming to move to NYC when I'm older but I'm scared because it's going to be difficult with getting work and green cards etcetera but we move we can do it
I dream of living in London!! I love my Brits
so proud of u!
Thanks chica :)
