  • Forbes - London ranked as worlds most influential city.

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...4-9676264.html

    For 2014.

    NY falls to second place. Paris, Singapore and Tokyo round out the top 5.

    London is awesome. It is the finance and commercial capital of the EU if not the world. It is world class for arts, culture, education, sport, fashion, entertainment, history and anything else.

    I live about an hour away - and I love trips to London. It is epic.

    Dubai is in the top 10 - which is a bit of a surprise given the 'newness' of the place, the lack of industry except finance and so on.

        It is awesome. Bring lots of money cos stuff is expensive and of course the £/$ rate is about 1.7 which means stuff is mega expensive for those earning USD and buying in GBP.

        I will go again next week - trying to decide what to do next professionally with 2 options one of which would take me to London for 2 years.

          I've wanted to visit for a while now, but my money is looking funny, and my change is looking strange.

          I'll keep my stupid fat yank self stateside for the time being.

            I hope to visit Washington DC and perhaps NY. Surprised that DC wasnt on the top 10 list.

            London beat NY by 2 points. Literally, 2 points.

            The other cities are miles behind.
