You can directly fund you account in the app, no website needed. I think the real answer here is that Apple considers a stock a physical good.

Not sure that I buy the theory either at the macro level, but I think one thing I have personally seen/heard of is people who are now realizing how much they don't like the city life (even when things are open) and the pandemic is

Most suburbs don't have what you describe at all, I'm not sure why you're getting so defensive. I grew up in the suburbs myself, one with 250K people (arguably a small city), and it had nothing close to that density outside o

I've yet to encounter someone in my NYC circle who isn't glad HQ2 was killed. Activists may be a small portion, but that doesn't represent the entirety of local support. None of the people I know were directly involved in sai

SF doesn't have the size of NYC, you're very right there, but it is still quite large and has a good deal to offer. City sizing is not all or nothing, and Indianapolis is nothing like SF in terms of offerings. SF transit is less t

I've said this there, but your solutions are highlighting that its a question of values. None of your suggestions actually sate what I value in those things. I'm not looking for a personal chef or climbing coach, I'm looking

And I'm happy for you! I'm not saying everyone values the same things, I'm just sharing my perspective and noting that it's not an uncommon one within the context of what this means at an economic and cultural level. For

If you dig into the comments, it seems the anecdotal evidence isn't pointing that way, but more towards suburban living. That said, to address the main issue: > There are plenty of cities to move to that are not SF or NYC If you are

Can you elaborate on that? I can't say I'm an SF history expert, but I've never heard of those shifts so I'm truly curious what you're referring to.

I think you underestimate the density of restaurants and cuisines available. No suburb I have encountered gets close to matching this situation. Suburbs also typically require cars, something I don't own and never want to own. I don&#x

I don't think it's going to be a wash, or prices wouldn't fall. You're right that this will decrease tax bases, so I guess the real question is "by how much?". Only time will tell what that looks like, but I th

Your suggestions mostly hit it. When you're used to constantly meeting friends in the city, it's a drastic social life change. I think also many people who enjoy cities like high levels of stimulation, and the suburbs simply don&#

The people who bought the tickets are likely not the victims it's going to, or at least I hope not. Watch the Hulu documentary if you want more context.

I think you're underestimating how much of a meme this is. Some of these I actually considered for a hot second in my head.
