What's not to like? Working hard is highly overrated as a way to make money.
It's not a bad way to live, but its connection to money-making has grown
pretty remote. Right?

Getting hired in NYC in the financial district is just the first
step. Most of the folks (I know a few) I know who work there put in
very long hours. Seriously. 7-9 is average, that's 14 hrs 6-7 days a
week the new kids really have no life other than work. And
the higher you get the harder you have to work...

But if you are talented, driven, well educated, and a bit lucky and
like the NYC lifestyle it's great.
