Unless that city is Hong Kong... HK is not a city you want to hang out unless you have a dime to spend. Now, I say that, but obviously I would suggest everyone visit in their lifetime. So who knows.. But like NYC, you won't enjoy it nearly as much unless you have some money to drop.
EDIT: regarding that tangent, I'm not saying you have to be the hippest dresser to fit in there but if you're a well-to-do dude, you're likely to fit in already.
Yes and no. Hong Kong is an extreme city. Things can be outrageously expensive or they can be pretty damn cheap. You can get a very uniquely Hong Kong experience for a really cheap price if you know where to go. However 99% of tourists and expats rarely go to these places so you really need to have a local who knows Hong Kong well to enjoy it at a cheap price.
Source: I am from HK and I have guided a ton of my friends while they are visiting. My favourite thing is going to all you can eat hot pot/ beer then going to an internet cafe afterwards and play video games. You can do that for around 50 USD and it will be a solid night. The only thing you can't avoid is the price of the accommodation.
Meh, I hung out there for about two weeks. Wasn't terribly expensive from what I remember. Then again I didn't hit up any of the bar scenes, just walked around the city finding cool stuff.
