Kick'n it NYC: WHAT HE WANTS, WHAT SHE WANTS...

As a single white female living in New York, it's very easy to rack up a hefty bill. No matter what I do to budget (countless excel spreadsheets that I SWEAR I'd maintain every time I start them) there's just so much I'd still like to tap into...
After going to see Bradley Cooper at the Actor's Studio, I decided that perhaps I'd start taking acting classes at Lee Strasburg Theatre Institute again. Little did I know it would cost me about $2,500 for a nine week session. Then there's that whole Tennis thing. I mean THANK GD for Central Park Tennis, but in the winter hours the last play is from 3pm-4pm daily. Equinox got out of control expensive for me to maintain @ $176 a month (still the best gym on the planet!!! Violette Zaki's kickboxing and Ilaria's classes are unbeatable).

I've done the Bikram thing and wish I could still be a member at Bikram Yoga LES ($140/month) and still be able to work out at my current gym, 24 Hour Fitness ($69.99/month)! Best Bikram spot in all of NYC, & best deal in the hood, by the way; brand new gym, locker room, sauna, equipment, and the classes aren't too bad either.

So "all of the above," is just to maintain a healthy lifestyle...what about wardrobe? Vacation? Homegoods? Dining out? It's tough in this big city to live it up. But the good news is that it's totally doable!
And TRUST ME...I'm not making nearly close to six figures a year and I still manage to satisfy my extranious cravings....

Whether it's under the tree or wraped up by the Menorah, when it comes to your holiday wishlist, you mustn't be shy...after all, if you don't ask, you don't get ;-)

WHAT HE WANTS:

If he wears a suit to work...he could never have enough socks, ties, & cuff links...
