Young Bankers Who Commute into the City - How Do You Do It?

This is in reference to NYC. Any analysts through VPs out there who commute into the city multiple days a week? I'm not talking JC/Hoboken/LIC, but like full-fledged suburbs. 

- What time do you wake up and leave?

- How long is your commute?

- Do you take public transit or rideshare in the PM?

-What's the biggest sacrifice you've had to make?

- Do other team members live in the 'burbs as well?

- Why did you decide to leave or not live in the City?

- Biggest regret/thing you miss most about the City?

-Are you renting or owning?

Thanks in advance!
