00:00Like a man, success is sometimes defined by dating someone less successful, really good-looking, and younger than you are.
00:08So I'm going to go on a little adventure today, and you're going to come with me.
00:13Hey guys, this is Awkwafina. Welcome to New York. This is Ballin' on a Budget.
00:18J-Lo ain't the only one who can flaunt around a younger man.
00:21Follow me to the East Village where I break hearts and not banks.
00:28Tinder is free, but what about the phone bill that comes with it?
00:31I prefer to meet men the old-fashioned way.
00:33What's your favorite French film from the 1950s?
00:37Same. Let me see your hand.
00:39Smooth as a baby and smells like the soap at Penn Station.
00:43Score.
00:44Who doesn't love a makeover montage?
00:48Go thrifting to keep it on the cheap.
00:50I feel like a Richard Gere in Pretty Woman, minus the salt and pepper hair in the giant 90s cell
00:56phone.
00:58Pass up the cheap spots and hit the freebie spots.
01:03At Crocodile Lounge, a beer gets you two slices of pizza.
01:06A dope spot, right, sweetheart?
01:08Here, get yours or something pretty.
01:11Pizza's like sex. I make it a point never to pay for either.
01:14See, Joe, you roll with me, everything's bountiful.
01:19Warning, do not attempt a Lady and the Tramp with pizza. It does not end well.
01:27Oh, oh.
01:29Okay.
01:33Never underestimate the little romantic gestures to show him you're serious about winning his heart.
01:38I know there's more. I can smell it.
01:43Nothing says forced entertainment like a photo booth.
01:55Chocolate is an aphrodisiac and available at every bodega for 50 cents.
02:01The view, priceless.
02:06In the words of our first great president, George Washington, love don't cost a bit.
02:11And as you can see, this city's for lovers.
02:13And today, I showed you that you can have romance for not that much money.
02:20What's up? It's Awkwafina, rapper and comedian from Queens, New York.
02:24The only thing I like more than a New York slice is saving money.
02:28I'm going to take you across the city to ball on a budget.
02:31I'm going to take you across the country.
02:31You
