Yeah, I guess my perspective is different since I'm younger, and I'm drawing upon what my friends do/did as MBB interns (or bulge bracket/boutique finance). One thing that stood out is that a good number of them this summer are paying absurd amounts for housing, usually less than a 5 minute walk to the office. But their logic isn't 'the less time I spend commuting the more time I can have to myself,' it's 'the less time I spend commuting the more likely I will be the first to respond when an MD needs me.'
