Why wouldn’t someone want to be in Miami making more than street with no state income tax?

I’m planning on mba fall 2025 and have started actively looking into options outside NYC banking

 

Cause that’s short sighted thinking. Maybe you make a little more with less state tax, maybe you don’t.

But nyc has so many different banks and funds and opportunities when you’re young.

Thats the real reason it’s powerful to start your career in nyc. Yes, the night life and sheer amount of hot girls is great when you’re young. But the real power is the vast majority of employment opportunities.

Once you’re older and established you can work anywhere.

But nothing beats nyc for the first few years on the job.

 

Met a couple RE focused bankers in the Tampa/ St. Pete office that were making between 150-175k all in and that was around 3 years ago.
