Cost of Seforim. can be half or less what it costs in the US.
(except stuff printed in the US)
but if you ever plan on moving back, it'll cost you big-time to ship

Even paying for shipping should be cheaper in most cases than buying in the US.

Any DDFers in SD, MT or WY?

When is a Chassidishe community being established there?

Did you listen, or just read?

I wonder what he has to say about Alaska, or about PR (which also has some tax advantages).

I know it's just a clip from a larger convo, but it's basically just him listing cities - "trust me bro". Is former FBI supposed to confer legitimacy for a guy who resigned in disgrace from the FBI almost 20 years ago? What makes him a current expert on the matter.

Pretty sure his scenario includes/highlights congestion pricing, which wouldn't have been around presumably in your story. You'd have to try really hard to concoct a decent routing LA>NY that breaks $100 without congestion pricing, and even then it wouldn't be majority NY/NJ tolls.

Lincoln tunnel to BBT and it was hitting you with congestion for the bit of street driving from the Lincoln tunnel to the West Side Highway? If that's what it was, that's kinda the point. Keep through traffic off city streets as much as possible. GWB>highway along east or west side>BBT is $21 with EZpass.

Well, you had a good run, NYC.

Good day to invest in homes in Jewish communities in CLE, DFW, IAH, or MIA.
