I'm always a bit surprised to see entries like "good restaurants and cultural offerings" on lists like these. Aren't the people these companies are trying to hire really really hardcore workaholics? How much time do they really spend going to the opera?
Maybe I'm an outlier, but my own tastes in culture are amply satisfied by a decent bookstore and movie theatre, or in a pinch Amazon and Netflix, these days.

- lsd5you 10y agoFor finance types, I would say it's largely about status - i.e. having something 'better' than other people. Even if they cannot fully appreciate these things.
