Just a comment about where to live...
If you work until midnight every night and you've got the dough, it's probably worth paying extra to live near work. Commuting from Queens to Wall Street would totally suck, especially if you're putting in long hours.
- elblanco 16y agoI don't disagree that that would be a haul. But complaining about high rent in a high rent neighborhood is like complaining that your Ferrari is too fast. It's not like there aren't other places to live in the city not really that far from the financial district.
- mtalantikite 16y agoI worked on wall street for a bit, and lived in Brooklyn Heights -- my commute was about 10-15 minutes (including walking). It was more than $1k cheaper than what the author was paying. I was always surprised that the guys at work never even considered Brooklyn as an option.
