Do you enjoy your role - Investment Bankers

I'm currently applying for summer internships in IB and feel that it is something which I would genuinely enjoy, but I don't have any experience actually doing the work yet.

For anyone who is already in the industry - do you really enjoy what you're doing or are you primary doing it for the money? In other words, if you could get the same money doing something else (potentially less demanding), whatever your particular preference may be, would you?
