Describes Barcelona to a T as well.
"additionally, you got the nba, nfl, mlb, nhl, you have all the restaurants, you have the american lifestyle in general."
News just in. LA doesn't have a football team.
Restaurants in Barcelona destroy LA restaurants side by side.
Again, if you want girls slapping their cell phones constantly or you want to watch guys in tight pants play baseball, LA is the choice.
If you want all night partying, freedom, smoking etc, then Barcelona is the choice.
Was just in Barcelona last week. Hit Quimet & Quimet. De facto drinking/smoking outside, amazing city for walking & cycling, good mix of people from all over Europe, architecture kills LA. It's a very livable city, especially if you have a bit of money.
The art scene is very weak, especially compared to a city like LA, which may be the best in the US. This is a big problem in Europe in general. And people are weirder and funnier in LA, that's for sure.. social life is more interesting.
So all in all, would you prefer LA or Barcelona to live in? (if you were balling, no budget, no limit to spend, etc.)

I like the relaxed lifestyle of southern Europe.. and an hour's flight and you're in yet another of 20 different amazing countries/cities, that's a pretty strong tiebreaker.
I'd like to have a home in each spot and spend a few months in each. I'm planning on something in Portugal and something in Cali, but probably the Bay area, not LA. Barcelona/LA would be great, I'm just not into Catalan culture or Iberian Spanish, and I know SF better and am into the vibe and natural surroundings.
My personal plan is apartments in Southern Europe (Lisbon or Porto) and South America (Buenos Aires), and big plots of land with weird country houses/follies in the mountains in the US (Shenandoah valley) and the desert (Coconino county). If money were no concern, I'd get an island instead of the country houses, and flat out buy some bombed-out US city like Baltimore and do the Brewster's Millions game on a massive scale.

Me and my buddies were just chilling and had a discussion, and I thought about asking this forum right away since you guys are the experts.
If you were rich, and you had the choice of having 5 different estates anywhere in the world, what cities would you choose? Keep in mind, you are single, so the amount of hot women plays a very important role lol. But so does climate, etc.
For me, it would be:
1. Miami
2. NYC
3. Nice/Cannes
4. Milan
5. Rio/Floripa/Porto Alegre/Buenos Aires/Cordoba/Beirut/Barcelona/Toronto (cannot decide between these lol)
Let's see what the experts would choose. Should be interesting...
Miami should be considered only if one speaks fluent Spanish so that is out of the question for me.
Anyways, here are my top 5:
1. NYC
2. Riga
3. Philadelphia
4. Las Vegas
5. Vienna (Austria)
Unfortunately I can't pick any South American cities as I haven't been to that continent
In Miami you have absolutely no trouble getting around with just English. Most people speak English. The only time you'll have trouble is at a gas station or market here and there, but I'm sure as long as you know very basic spanish you wouldn't have a problem....
For my list, I have a hell of a lot more traveling to do, but based on places I've been....
Orange County, CA
Miami
Vitoria
Rio
Las Vegas
All places I've already lived or spent a month +. Guess I've been pretty fortunate on places I've lived.

RE: If you were rich...
MiXX, thank you for spreading true wisdom & knowledge! Seriously, what he says is true. There's hella competition from equally (and even richer) folks in the large cities (or markets as I'd like to call them). They're fine for doing some business in or spending a couple weekends in to test your game, but if u can roam from small/medium market to small/medium market, a whale can seriously destroy. Either way, I'm liking this thread & the fantasies it conjures lol.

Hell, I'm rich; this means I can fly an interior decorator and architect from Miami to pimp my pad to look like a South Beach oceanfront loft with a Japanese garden like Mr. Miyagis!
Here's why. Miami, NYC, Rio, LA have tons of rich guys in late model Bentleys and Yachts. You are just another one. It's better to be a BIG fish in a small pond, not a shark in an ocean of killer whales and dolphins.
I can always fly to Miami for a weekend fuck fest cuz I'm RIIICCCHH BITCH!!

It all depends what type of women I was in the mood for.
Shit, I might just stay home and fly girls in to see me.
Rick James/Charlie Sheen style!!
Ok, enough mental masterbation for today, back to reality, I'm just trying to bang the checkout girl at the liquor store around the corner.
Charlie Sheen style? That fool only bangs prostitutes (And he turns normal girls into prostitutes). Any time he meets a girl he wants to bang he just offers her $10g's. Dudes a joke.
On some real shit, if i had this guy money, i would probably do the same. Bitch is playing hard to get, take 10 gs and fuck her and im out. Come on, this guy is pushing more than 10 million per year, do you think 10 thousand dollars makes any difference to his bank account? Its as if i was paying a hot chick a dollar to fuck her, i wouldnt think twice.
You guys are too focused with having tight game and build your egos about you having tight game, im just concerned in fucking and moving on, i dont give a fuck how i am going to enter that pussy, my confidence is pretty good already.

It has nothing to do with dishing out the money, it's the people he offers it to, and he's not just paying $10gs and fucking the girls and dipping, he'll pay the same girl to fuck him multiple times, 10 g's a pop lol. Let's put it this way, I know of at least one person that makes a living off of fucking him. At least he's doing his part to contribute to the economy. I'm not even gonna go into it any deeper but just know, the man is a tool. A POS on so many levels. Now, back to the if you were rich where would you live question.

RE: If you were rich...
After just recently coming back from NYC, I absolutely put it as the #1 city in the world. Not only in terms of women, but everything in general. What an amazing city, truly something special! So much to do, so much to see, so many people, so many restaurants, clubs, bars, venues, scenes, parks, etc. And a lot of beautiful girls with style you can't find in many other cities.
-NYC
-Paris
-Los Angeles/Miami
-Biarritz/Milan/Stockholm/Montreal/Cannes
-Sao Paulo/Rio de Janeiro/Buenos Aires

BA? I don't know. Didn't even spend more than a week there. Just liked the overall vibe and it reminded me a lot of an even much cheaper Barcelona. People are super nice although I do miss the EE and Scandi hotties from BCN, therefore it's lower on the list.
I've lived for more than 1 month in all 4 other cities mentioned though.
