25 year old from New York...and more
Hello Everyone,
I am a 25 year old guy born and raised in New York City. I feel that I can only get richer the more I age, but still my roots are in frugal living and thrift shopping. I hope to contribute and also get some tips from these forums.
I will be heading to Japan for 3 months pretty soon, but then I will be back in NYC.
I just got a Costco membership and BJ's membership for the first time ever in my life, last week. I walked around each store and took notes on the prices of the items. I have typed this up using Microsft Word, so if anyone wants me to post it up, please let me know which forum would be most welcoming. Thanks.
Please feel free to ask me questions about Japan, New York, and to a lesser extent, Colombia and the Dominican Republic.

Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

and from Ohio. I can't wait to read some of your posts on the countries you mentioned. I take it your job takes you to these countries, or are you lucky enough to afford the travel?
