Take kids in to account forget about the 100K. Its all easy to work out ,and who ever says otherwise got blinkers on !!!!!
Even before COVID 100k HKD a month is plenty for a couple with no kids. That's close to 13k USD per month. That will give you a very nice lifestyle even in NYC.
Unless you feel that you need to rent a 3 bedroom apartment in the mid levels and own a car.
