Willie Said:

I am writing a story set in 1920's New York, cant anyone provide me with some research help?

We Answered:

You really should write about what you know. So before you write your piece you should read about 1920's New York life, culture, prices, housing. Otherwise your story won't ring true with readers familiar with the era.

How much money should I save before moving to New York?

We Answered:

NYC is very expensive and landing a great paying personal assistant job in nyc might be challenging. You may need to have some other realistic options and a few different type of jobs lined up to take a look at. But a decent apartment in NYC + the cost of living might be steep. If anything, try looking at apartments in the surrounding Boroughs (Brooklyn and Bronx and even Fort Lee, NJ which is right across the river from NYC) where prices might be a little better and NYC is still only a short subway ride away. Good luck!
