I realize that many of us (including me) do not have enough bananas to PM others, so should we just post publicly? @jcbgrss and @hayjaykay--any interest in downtown/Tribeca/FiDi?

 

Not to be a dick, I'm not trying to come off as a dick at all:

But, It's crazy to me how, people that have never lived in New York, think that they can spend absurd amounts on rent...

Wanting to spend 2300 on rent? If you make, let's say, 70 in salary... each paycheck is going to be around 1850. I don't understand first year analysts wanting to spend that much on rent in NYC... Taxes are going to hit you in the face like a brick. Unless you have parents supplementing you, then I guess that makes sense.

 

I'll start off the regionals

City: Houston Office Location: Downtown Preferred Areas: Open to anywhere nice, but pref Midtown. Start Date: June Lease Start: early June Position: Analyst Total Roommates: 2-4 Gender: Male Budget: up to $1300 Contact: PM

 

City: NYC Office Location: Midtown Preferred Areas: Midtown and Murray Hill, Start Date: Mid June Lease Start: Early June Position: SA Analyst - IBD Total Roommates: N/A Gender: Male Budget: 2K Contact: PM

 

Not in the typical cycle as everyone else, but...

City: NYC Office Location: Midtown Preferred Areas: Anywhere in Manhattan Start Date: Early March Lease Start: Same time period, willing to discuss (will likely be subletting for some time). Position: FT Analyst - IBD Total Roommates: 2-4 Gender: Male Budget: Up to $2000 Contact: PM

"Yes. Money has been a little bit tight lately, but at the end of my life, when I'm sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I'm gonna be thinking about how many friends I have and my children and my comedy albums."
 

**2 guys looking for a third roommate

Does this thread have bed bugs?

If one of you SA's bring bed bugs into the office and infects us all, no FT offer for you.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.

My roommate and I are looking to add a third person to our apartment on the Upper West Side (68th and Columbus). Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll send more detail.

My friends and I are currently looking for one additional roommate for an apartment in Murray Hill. I am a second year (upcoming third year) IBD analyst, one roommate works in business development and the other works at a start-up. One of our other roommates has to move out so we are trying to fill his room. Generally, I would say we are pretty easy going, social and all of us work a lot (unsurprisingly).

Apartment: Nice apartment (especially for the price) - 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, recently renovated, loft / high ceilings, washer / dryer in unit.

Move in: Around 5/31 Location: Murray Hill (2 blocks from 6 train). Budget: ~1400

Thanks
