$1,700 Apartment Vs. $40,000 Apartment

"Babe. I got this spot."

In Worth It: Lifestyle Season 2, a spin off of BuzzFeed’s hit series Worth It, host Steven Lim and his buddies embark on a new adventure, setting out to try different experiences at three different price points: affordable, middle tier, and luxury--from airplane seats to cars to videos games. At the end of the episode, the gang decides which experience is the most “worth it” at its given price.

I looked at the $40, 000 a month and I was in debt

“You don’t need a car, you’re in Manhattan” ... this guy’s good...

[KS-mcry]

"You don't need a car, you're in Manhattan. Sell the car, take the apartment."
... For one month.... ._.

[jillianrose]

the real question is how the Russo’s from Wizards or Waverly Place afforded to live in Tribeca and own a deli that didn’t get that much business...

[imbored]

If you can afford $40, 000 a month for rent why not just buy a home already

[reaganr]

I honestly just used this video for sim house inspiration

[MartyMcFly__]

It's sad that 1700 is cheap rent 😂😂😂😂

[grgfourtinas]

that went 1700 to 24k reallll quick hahaha

[bananakin]

thank god the apartment wasnt covered in truffles and caviar

[Werelion]

Buzzfeed you should do ocean cruises. Like at $800, $4000 and $20, 000 price points.

[JayT]

This chick is paying $1, 700 a month for a dorm room, that.

[mexiejew]

Born in raised just 30 minutes shy of NYC, 1700 is actually very decent for any apartment in the city. You can usually find want ads for rooms for 1400 - 1700. Also, have to remember wages in NYC can be significantly higher depending on the field. But i don't think I would ever spend 40K to rent anything.

Ben: NOW THAT'S REFRESHING 💦
Me: NOW THATS EXPENSIVE👀

Having a bar in a library, is my heaven.

[risingembersgaming]

For people complaining about apartment cost, NY generally has better, and more, jobs, it’s a big city, people don’t move there for cheap housing. Sure, apartments are expensive, but you make more too.

[Bambi]

Its official. Ben is the soul mate to Steven in worth it life style. Andrew and Adam are the soul mates to Steven in worth it food though.

[ilovelifeAS]

"Can we hear your toilet flush?" WTF? "Now that's refreshing" 😂

[le]

After 355 years of getting my allowance, I can finally afford...!




the pillows..

[Mycrazyadventur]

$480, 000 to live in that apt for 1 year in NYC, or buy a House for $480, 000 in the country equally as nice and luxurious, and own it! I think I'll buy the house instead!

[jenniferchough]

Can we have Ben on more often? He has such a warm and friendly personality!
