Some banks pay by the hour too so people there make so much money!Like wells pays 40/hour plus OT so on a 65-70 hour workweek, you would take home like 3100-3400 a week so over the ten weeks around 31k-34k. This is not including them paying for your flight tickets and the bonus. I know MS pays 50/hour so they make even more. Hourly banks are the top of the line outside of the huge quant firms that are just insane
