The economy, frustration & lack of creativity...

It was time to do something different! After Wall Street happened and the economy crashed, most of us felt it. In the past year, all of us (and yes, we are all friends) got laid off, fired, or were finding ourselves at crossroads. It was one pity party after another. After months of bitching to one another, the question became: How can we utilize our time and hidden talents? As New Yorkers, don't we all have them? I mean nobody moves here to search for that wrap-around porch to sip on lemonade all day.

It wasn't long before we all realized we have 2 things in common. We continue to be passionate about New York City and refuse to leave but none of us are striving any longer to be superstars, hipsters or the next big thing. Then the question became, how can we be resourceful on finding ways to keep our sanity while still having fun? So through our own experiences, interviews & everything in between, our goal with this blog is to reach out to New Yorkers who STILL want to fit in without 'fitting in'. We hope you enjoy what we've done. Without furthur ado, we present to you The Five Outsiders...
