I moved to New York alone recently,

and this is how much I've been spending in a week living here.

And this is coming from a girlie that loves eating out,

loves going shopping, and needs her wallet taken away.

So ever since I moved to New York,

one of the main questions I've gotten is,

how do you afford to live there?

And girl, I don't even know.

Life has gotten so expensive.

Literally as much as I just bought, $8.

And every time I stepped foot outside,

it's like minus $100 in my bank account,

but I need to do better.

I decided that this week I was going to be tracking my finances

and actually paying attention to the things I spend money on

And in this video i'm going to be calculating everything at the end You're going to be seeing everything

that I spend money on and just the reality of living in new york

and how much it costs to live here It's gotten

so bad to the point where i'm too scared to even check my bank account

So first let's start off with a little breakdown of my

monthly expenses Since I will be incorporating these into the total amount that I spent every week So for one,

every month at the beginning of the month,

I will spend $133 on a metro card so that I get unlimited rides,

which means that I spend around $33 per week on transportation.

I usually start my days by going to the gym.

I've been going almost every day, you guys.

I've been getting addicted to the gym.

I would say around five times a week.

And my gym membership costs me $60,

which means I'm spending around $16 per week.

So I just got to Chinatown.

And this is usually where I come to pick up my fruits

and veggies and the stuff here is always so fresh and yummy So let's go pick out some stuff Okay,

so I came here with a $20 bill and I wasted around 15 but then I let them keep the rest

I just picked up my weekly groceries.

I've been motivating myself to cook more from home.

For the longest time, I refused to cook.

I kept eating out, ordering Postmates.

And not only was that not healthy,

but it was also draining my bank account.

But now, I've been having more fun with cooking.

Every week, I try to cook new things.

And the thing that excites me most about cooking now is shopping at Whole Foods.

Some things that I buy from here every single week is steak.

Of course, a carton of eggs.

I always make sure to stock up on some bone broth.

This stuff is really high in protein.

And I'll literally just drink this alone.

I saw Whole Foods had this pistachio milk and I'm really excited to try this.

I got some ingredients this week to make pasta.

I like getting myself a fun drink every week.

I honestly don't really eat chips anymore,

but these, these are my go-to.

I got some lettuce.

For my Whole Foods grocery haul today, I spent $57.

Later this night, I did end up spending money on ramen,

but because I had a discount,

basically every month my credit card gives me $15 off Uber Eats.

So this whole dinner only cost me $12.

So once a week, I like to dedicate a day to taking myself on a solo date.

I basically will get into a cute outfit and just spend the day exploring by myself.

And I always look forward to this because I have a huge list of places I've been wanting to go check out.

A lot of it is food places and cafes.

And right now, I'm actually headed to this spot in the East Village.

The pictures online look so yummy,

so I'm excited to try it out

and before we go in let me give you a little outfit of the day so i had

gone out to do some shopping whenever i got exploring i ended up going into every little shop

that catches my attention this area is full of such good thrift shops

and i actually ended up buying a few things i had

gone to the muji store i have been on the lookout for a new planner

and i just picked up some stationary stuff i didn't end

up really doing much for the rest of the day besides just staying in my apartment.

the next morning i decided i wanted to go

and work at a coffee shop sometimes it's the only way

to get myself to be productive like to get me to

focus rewarding myself with a little seven drink will do the job

so i usually don't go for coffee

but i had been hearing really good things about this one like this has been getting hyped up

and i had to come try it i do love coffee the only issue is

that it tends to be too strong for me so i just don't drink it as often but this is really good.

I think I'll give this a 9.5 out of 10.

Like the flavor is so good.

I want to chug this but the reason I wouldn't give it a 10 is because it is on the stronger side.

I do still think this is worth it though.

I brought this little planner with me that I just bought yesterday.

I'm just gonna sit here with my little coffee,

listening to music, writing in my planner.

I feel like this is so much more of a vibe than doing it at home.

And this park I just found is so cute.

Today I decided that I was going to spend the day running errands,

specifically the ones I've been avoiding.

I am planning on going to the gym at some point,

so I am in my gym outfit.

Right now I'm going to go get my eyebrows done.

i believe i was born in the right generation

because i don't know what i would do without tiktok like

i love going on there to find new recipes i have

this whole folder with a bunch a different recipe safe

100

that I want to try and at least once a week I try something new.

101

I kind of already dug into this but it's supposed to be a thick Greek yogurt bowl.

102

I kept seeing people make this on my for you page and I ended up making my own version of it.

103

It turned out so good.

104

I basically had to strain some Greek yogurt a couple days ago.

105

I left it in the fridge for around two days so the consistency of the yogurt is super thick.

106

I highly recommend you try this.

107

It's such an easy healthy snack to make from home.

108

This like fully satisfies my cravings.

109

I'm also just eating some mango.

110

But anyways, this week I realized that I eat out way too often.

111

The fact that it's almost every day now is kind of a problem.

112

Like sometimes I will try to make the effort to try and cook more from home,

113

but I need to try a little harder.

114

So I'm officially banning myself.

115

Starting today, no more eating out.

116

So after I had hit the gym this day,

117

I was craving a filling nutritious meal and I just couldn't resist getting myself something from Springbone.

118

I have been so obsessed with this place.

119

I also realized I had an appointment this day to go do a little hair blowout.

120

I had gone to go check out the spot I had seen on TikTok.

121

As you could probably tell by now, I am easily influenced.

122

I had heard a lot of good reviews on this place.

123

They basically do these $30 blowouts and they do such an amazing job.

124

I'm so excited right now.

125

I have been getting ready all day and preparing because I'm going to be going to a concert tonight,

126

which is officially the most expensive purchase i've made all week

127

i decided to get last minute tickets to go see the weekend

128

which is my favorite artist by the way he's genuinely the only artist

129

that i listen to on repeat like every single year he's always my number one artist

130

and i've been dying to go to one of his concerts for years i think it cost me 200

131

but i don't regret it because it's an experience

132

when it comes to spending money on memories

133

that i'll never forget i never see it as a waste

134

especially with everything going on i'm always encouraging myself to live my life

135

while i'm so young and just pushing myself to do things even

136

if they're scary so i'm getting ready right now to go to this last minute concert alone

137

which i've never done by the way

138

but i have this huge bucket list of things

139

that i want to try doing alone

140

and going to a concert is one of them i am a little nervous but mostly excited

141

i'm just gonna finish getting ready off camera and i'll see you when i'm there

142

I'm so excited.

143

so day five was one of those days where i didn't

144

really do much like i literally just stayed in my apartment

145

watched netflix did some deep cleaning just had a little reset

146

which means i ended up spending zero dollars this day i didn't eat out i cooked all my meals from home

147

so saturday morning i got to go to this cafe i've

148

been really wanting to go check out they mostly serve tea

149

and these really yummy looking desserts i had actually gone on a little date this day

150

so of course i ended up spending zero dollars

151

so i was about to start cooking dinner until i realized i was missing a bunch of ingredients

152

so i just threw on a sweater

153

and now i'm quickly walking to the grocery store they have peonies i didn't come for this

154

but it's so rare to see them in stores i have to get one

155

so this night i had been craving a steak

156

so i had gone to the store i picked up some ingredients

157

that i was missing as well as some flowers i've slowly been improving my recipe

158

and i think it turned out pretty delish.

159

Look at my creation.

160

So as I've mentioned before,

161

my recent obsession has been steak.

162

Then earlier this week, I had made some mac and cheese

163

that I kind of just added onto the side it looks

164

so yummy i feel like every time i make it it gets juicier

165

and juicier but okay let's dig in this is giving wife right now

166

one of the most exciting parts about moving to new york is the way

167

that there is

168

so much to do here like i think it is actually impossible to get bored living here especially

169

when you're new here i feel like every day is an adventure every time i go out there's

170

so much to explore i constantly have this huge list of cafes

171

and new food spots that I want to go try

172

but the downside of this is that you end up spending

173

so much money like basically just as much as when you're visiting

174

and so sometimes the only way to get myself to not spend

175

so much money is literally just trap myself in my apartment

176

sometimes I'll literally go a couple days without leaving my apartment

177

which is not a huge problem for me

178

because I honestly love my apartment and I tell myself

179

that I should be trying to enjoy the rent I'm paying like today I don't have too much planned Just this morning,

180

I was planning and heading to a little market nearby and picking up some stuff for my cats.

181

But other than that, today will be a boring day.

182

And I'm going to try to make it my goal to not spend money on anything unless I absolutely have to.

183

So this is the breakfast that I look forward to every morning.

184

I've been making myself this pistachio matcha.

185

Then i like to make myself either a yogurt

186

or oatmeal bowl i like to come

187

and just sit by my window with my cat

188

and we just like to drive here this morning i was

189

going to try out some of these new eye patches

190

that were recently gifted to me they are rose gold illuminating eye masks

191

so this was another one of those days where i didn't

192

really end up spending much i had gone out on a

193

walk i had stopped by a market to pick up some stuff for my cat this is me admiring some flowers

194

Then I had an event this day,

195

which was this ipsy gifting suite They were doing free manicures,

196

which I was so grateful for because my nails had been so crusty all week They gave me a free matcha,

197

which was now my second matcha of the day

198

i got to try out a bunch of their new makeup products i met one of their makeup artists

199

which was the sweetest she did the cutest little makeup look on me i was obsessed with this lip combo

200

that she gave me like i was taking notes from her but that ended up being all that i did this day.

201

I've been laying here in my bed trying to figure out how much I spend per week.

202

I'm like writing down every expense I made,

203

putting everything into different categories, and it's looking scary.

204

Like somebody needs to come and take my credit card away from me.

205

So this week, according to my calculations,

206

it seems that I spent approximately $1,130.

207

This is not including my rent by the way basically i added up all the money

208

that i spend on food groceries eating out all of my

209

subscriptions transportation bills i have like for my wi-fi phone gym other miscellaneous things like

210

when i go shopping randomly i will say

211

that my expenses do look very different every week i have become a lot less impulsive

212

when it comes to spending my money

213

because there used to be a point in time where i used to blow money on things like clothes

214

which is super unnecessary like now If I spend a large amount of money on something,

215

like I said earlier, it's usually on experiences because to me that seems a lot more worth it.

216

Like recently, I don't really go shopping for clothes anymore unless I go thrifting or I'm looking for something specific.

217

It does seem like I spend the most amount of money on food, like eating out.

218

It seems like I spent $194 on food, $12 on subscriptions, $33 on transportation.

219

So if you multiply these by four,

220

transportation is like $133 a month.

221

My bills came out to $57 dollars luckily my apartment doesn't have me pay for utilities

222

but if you want to include my rent then the total comes closer to

223

so anyways i am done with this video i hope you

224

enjoyed this probably is my sign to leave new york just

225

kidding i've honestly been having a lot of fun here i think it's been super worth it i will say

226

that living here is super expensive

227

but you know i had heard this quote somewhere someone said in your 20s move to an expensive city

228

that you can't forward because it'll force you to figure it out

229

and as you saw just looking at my expenses this week gave me

230

so much anxiety like living in such an expensive city motivates me to get it together

231

because this is not acceptable but it does make me

232

so grateful though it's just so crazy to think

233

that there was once a point in time back in like 2021

234

when i was first starting my youtube channel

235

and i got my first ever brand deal which was around 800

236

and i remember literally crying because

237

that was the biggest paycheck i had ever received in my life

238

and it just makes me so happy that i've been able to turn something

239

that i love doing into my full-time job a lot of

240

you guys always ask me in the comments what i do for a living

241

and it's literally just been youtube for the last years

242

which is crazy to think about like yes

243

that is how i've been able to do all the traveling

244

and the crazy shopping videos

245

and moving into my dream apartment it is all thanks to you guys i'm sending you all love

246

and kisses feel free to go attack me in the comments

247

for the amount of money i spend please like i know i need to chill out anyways that is all you
