At the first dawn of the morning we closed all the massy shuttersof our old building; lighted a couple of tapers which, strongly perfumed, threwout only the ghastliest and feeblest of rays.

Jay Z and Beyonce are doing okay.
Humour that only the famous can make it in NYC!

No one “wins” New York. Ha, ha
Follows the negative theme of the article. Why can no one win? The city cannot take everyone prisoner!

I had the feeling that if I needed money I could always get it. I could write a syndicated column for teenagers under the name "Debbi Lynn" or I could smuggle gold into India or I could become a $100 call girl, and none of it would matter.
The possibilities of the city - endless ways to make a living, both positive and negative.
