I hope you find extra motivation from the extreme contraints you forced on yourself in the longer term. Making yourself live on 24k in NYC is not a good idea.

I hope you find extra motivation from the extreme contraints you forced on yourself in the longer term. Making yourself live on 24k in NYC is not a good idea.
