Thoughts on NYC?

I'm a prestigious person and have only ever thought NYC is the right place for me. London? seemingly prestigious until you recieve those British paychecks with awful taxes. San Francisco? There is nothing prestigious about arrogant nerds in henleys with super thick glasses.

Other than the prestige, why do you love NYC?
