What type clothing is suitable in new York on middle nov?

usually temperature around that time would be between 40-50F (shouldn't be snowing yet till dec)....so you gauge for yourself how much you need to put on since different people have different tolerance for cold. for me, usually just jeans and maybe 2 t-shirts underneath+fleece hoodie would suffice. but say if you are out in the water in a ferry...then a windbreaker would come in handy. easiest will be to layer....if too hot, then remove your layers....and bring an extra layer in your bag to put on if too cold. always good to have a windbreaker with hood or a raincoat in your bag. i like sweaters with warm deep pockets to put my hands in if they are cold. i don't like gloves 'cos i keep losing them and i don't function well when wearing them. if you don't have a hoodie sweater...you might wanna get a warm hat. a scarf too if your sweater don't cover your neck.

Just to check, my 2 days of stay at LA is near to Disneyland, hence I will use 1 day to play at Disneyland. However, the next day, I am free. Any recommendation to spend the next day which is near my hotel area? I am not driving.

I wish I've such an income. Then I can stay in Manhatten itself. Have to travel an hour just to get to work everyday leh. oso, childcare costs are so high. can take big chunk out of our income.

U stay in USA still a noob? how long U been there? always working hard?

childcare cost is high, how many kids do u have?
depending how much 1 makes, sending 2-3 kids to childcare = 1 parent staying at home should 1 only makes ~$50K a yr. u only gain freedom.

if u like some ang mo, send kids to private school and the childcare u burn $$$ super fast.

that really cost a bomb if it is USD, SGD that still normal by US standards! can put a max of 3K aside and that is tax deducible, but with that also not worth it. mu friends in Baltimore only pay ~US$200 a week, of course he got to provide diapers and wet tissue.

depending how much U make, more than 2 kids 1 person stay at home is the best. Daycare feed the kids cheapo food, some exercise no control and U have to remind them do that or do that constantly like every week!
