Defining needs and wants can be tricky though.

I think the art of trolling has reached the classified section.

Re: Classified Ads Have Hit a New Low.

I just have a problem with the way they phrased it.

"WE NEED HELP BUYING AN APARTMENT on the UWS, 3bd 2 bath. YOU are a philanthropic, wealthy person who would not miss a million bucks and would be interested in donating (or even investing) in a highly targeted manner: to my family. WE are a wonderful, hard working middle class family who contributes to our UWS community, is entrenched, happy and desperately wants to remain on the UWS (lest the city lose yet another wonderful family to the burbs). We can afford 600-700K, so you see the predicament. Can you help us??"

I mean, they do have a point - apartments in Manhattan are ridiculously expensive. But on the other hand, they could just move out of the upper west side and move somewhere cheaper in Manhattan - they don't have to go to the 'burbs like they're implying. As if the suburbs are "bad". At least they're not moving to some shady part of Brooklyn or something. Yeesh.
