Why it worked

This video likely performed well due to its relatable topic of rent prices in a major city, presented in a lighthearted and engaging street interview format. The inclusion of personal anecdotes and varying responses creates viewer interest and encourages discussion in the comments.

Summary

This video features two New Yorkers discussing their rent prices and minimum income needed to live comfortably in the city. One woman states she pays $1600 for rent in Bushwick, while the other mentions $3000 a month, though she admits she sometimes says that for effect. The second woman also shares a humorous anecdote about getting a black eye while playing Mario Kart with children.

I'd say 50k you can you can function if you have quesadillas every single night you're fine. I feel like $2500 for everything like you can survive a month a month So you like buttons?
