Basically I'm thinking of LA/NY not sure which one don't really mind too much, what I want to know is what is the job market over there like at the present time? I know it's pretty bad all over the world at the moment but i'm not looking for some crazy well paid job just enough to get by, general retail stuff would be right up my ally and I have experience in that area anyway. My parents recently came into some money too so I should have alittle to get me kickstarted I'll have about £2000 which isn't alot I think it's about $3000-$3200 at the moment which should be enough just to get started, I'll obviously have to secure a job first unless I want to spend some time being homeless for awhile. haha. Someone recommended Craigs list for looking for a house share or something, so that's on my list of to dos. anyone got any input or whatever I would like some thoughts on the matter...

Anyone done anything else similer?
