I'm pretty sure most managing directors at downtown banks aren't taking the subway or the bus too often. They get driven around, just not in shuttle buses.

- infinotize 13y agoThis is like how Bloomberg would take the subway* once in a while. *Get driven in his convoy from his house to the subway station.
- rayiner 13y agoBloomberg would take the subway 10 stops about three days a week. He got driven to 59 street, skipping 2 stops, which is the nearest station that has express service on the 4. That's pretty legit.
- saryant 13y agoJohn Paulson, the investor responsible for the single biggest trade in Wall St. history which netted him $4 billion personally, routinely took the public bus to his office.
- rayiner 13y agoYour rank-and-file MD isn't getting driven to work. He or she is taking Metro North from Westchester or LIRR from Long Island. There'a lot of people making $500k-5m in New York who take public transit or walk to work.
- krisdol 13y agoDriving from Westchester to Manhattan is 1.5 hour drive in slow-moving traffic to a city where parking is almost dollar a minute. Taking the train is 20 minutes, with bathrooms, often times wifi, and comfortable seats. Subway is usually about 35-45 minutes. Public transport is comfortable and saves time.
