Materialisim within America

February 23, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

America is listed as one of the most expensive places to settle down, with the worlds largest economy. Though within the past few years our economy has taken a downturn(the worst since the depression era) and countries like China and Japan slowly but surely catching up to our countries record of being the world’s largest economy and biggest producer of goods. American society today is based upon several different principals, but the most common is greed.

Every year, not to mention every year there is a new must-have item, with technological advances bounding light-years ahead of what people of the past thought it would be. Advertisement today is based off of how exactly the producer can entice the buyer into buying their product, or investing in more of their company. When the Iphone first came out, hundreds of thousands of people camped out in front of electronics stores for days before it’s release just to buy one, with the day after thanksgiving being the busiest shopping day of the year for consumers and producers alike, people shelling out hundreds of thousands of dollars on products they or their children “just have to have.”

Evidence suggests that there is  a type of personality  pre-dispositioned to be more materialistic. Results show  people more affected by  their emotions are more likely to become materialistic, due to their desires to fit in with the crowd, or to posses products and items no one else has yet, or few have seen before. Men are just as likely to become materialistic in today’s society as women are, though men oftentimes tend to buy more gadgets and “toys” such as boats, or cars, while women stick with Clothes, perfumes and shoes. It’s all about who’s who, and who has what today, leading to more cases of bullying, and unpopularity within today’s children.

The Benefits of the Big Apple

February 17, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

They don’t call it the “Big Apple” for nothing. New York City’s got everything you need, just like an apple. After all, why do you give one to your teacher? Because your teacher has a tough job, so getting an apple is like getting a jumpstart on your day. Now imagine a “big apple,” and that’s New York City for you. Why do you think some people actually live in the city’s 5-star hotels? There’s so much there to do that you’ll never get bored! You’ll always be nourished.

If you happen to be visiting and setting up your temporary residence at a luxury hotel New York City style, bear in mind that you might be shocked and overwhelmed at the sheer frontier before you that you can explore. It almost makes Australia’s Outback look like a backyard. Whether you’re staying at the Jumeirah Essex House, the St. Regis, or the Greenwich Hotel, take notes on things to look for in the Big Apple. The following are just a few ideas of the many things to see and do in NYC.

A veritable heart of the world–that’s Times Square. It’s the central location of all trade, entertainment, and just about everything else. Then there’s Central Park with the historic Tavern on the Green, a restaurant filled with so much aesthetic appeal that not only will you feel your stomach with nourishment, you’ll do the same with your eyes. You want to purchase a $1,000 sundae just for kicks? If so, go to Serendipity 3 and marvel at the Guinness World Record holder, the “Opulence Sundae.” Pretty crazy, isn’t it?

That just barely grazes the ground of the Adirondack Mountains and graces the surface of Lake Placid, because New York City is huge–so take your time. Don’t worry; the Big Apple won’t go bad if you take too long.

Are you considering a move to New York? Whether it be for school or just a change of pace, New York has some of the Highest per ca-pita of new residents, and some of the most luxurious places to call home, if you’re willing to put money into where you’re living. Renting is a great option if you’re just looking for something non-commit-able, New York has some of the nicest apartments and condos on the market today.  If you are looking to buy, New York is the place to be for jobs, shopping and entertainment. The city’s “urban” vibe is a plus for many locals and tourists alike. Let’s start with a few apartment listings.

First of all, you have to consider how many rooms you are looking for. Oftentimes, the more rooms you want/need, the more expensive their going to be to rent or even buy. Second of all, is how many square feet the apartment is, and just where in the city it’s located at. Starting with renting, you have to decide which suburb or”part”of the city you want to live in. If you take prime real-estate, such as central park south, Upper East side or Soho, you’ll see renting prices on condo’s at around 15,000 dollars to 25,000 dollars. . This price range is normal for a high end 4 bedroom condo.

Secondly, Let’s take a look at buying an apartment/condo. The perk of buying instead of renting is of course, you owning the property outright. It’s yours, not a landlord’s, and you don’t have to commit to a lease every few months or every year. A typical price for a high end Condo in the Soho/Nari-ta, Chelsea with around 4,000 sq ft. is upwards of 4 million dollars. When it comes to buying solid housing, or an actual house property, this will be rare, and hard to find, making it more expensive. Houses within the shopping district are rare, and you will get farther faster with a condo/apartment. There is housing listed for coops and townhouses just above 9 million dollars.
