Best accommodation for analysts
Title. If I was a junior banker in London, where would I live? What would be a realistic budget, realistic commute time, realistic location. Let’s say the average analyst earns PS75k all in.

Please live in Shoreditch. It's fucking amazing. Drinks are cheap, lots of fun to be had.
Dude -- didn't you write the other day that you haven't completed your GCSEs yet?
My stage in life has nothing to do with the question I asked. I wanna know some hotspots for bankers fr two mains reasons: I’m fucking curious and i know a lot of bankers who would also wanna know. Who cares if I’ve dont my GCSEs or not, just answer the question.
Well my personal recommendation would be Chelsea in a nice flat-share with one other person if working in Mayfair. Move out to your own place when Associate.
Does the average analyst in London earn 75k? Cause when I read the Arkesden Compensation Report, I remember seeing 50k + bonus so probably 55-60.
Are bonuses that low? Only 5 to 10k?

More like £40,000 first year analyst bonus for the full year (and as the OP was actually talking about analysts in general, we should use analyst 2 as a measure, so 55 base + 50 bonus = 105)
I think @Sio is talking about a signing bonus
