How long I'd last in2019 LA...? Good question..If I didn't have a family...i'd probably last quite awhile...I've worked in the Big Bad City of NY as a "Flatfoot" for 6 yrs..then skeedaddled to the 'burbs...but It's busy as hell where I work, even for da 'burbs, so...I'd fit right in...Hey Bryant, pour me a double!

Depends...people that live "up" are better off than the ones who live "down." I'd like to live both...... Deckard was a bit like that.

I would hopefully experience a normal live span.

I would definately prefer police work in that type of environment. Given a choice. If I was not able to be a cop I'd probably go the other way and be a thug, as long as I have the ability to protect myself I'd be just fine.

I'd be fine in that environment. In fact, I'd probably do great. I think
I would set myself up as an information broker, you hear alot of stuff
when people don't think you're important.

I could definately do ok and possibly thrive, but it is important to keep in mind the day to day reality of it would lose some of the amazing ambience that we see on screen.
