CAREER OPTIONS: REIB Versus Commercial RE Brokerage

Looking into different career options at this point as I am about a year and a half into my analyst role with a MM REPE firm in Buffalo, NY. Want to get down to the NYC and have been exploring both options. I know the paths are largely different but both seem to be pretty lucrative. Anyone have advice on the pay, lifestyle, exit opps, etc.? Much appreciated.

When a plumber from Hoboken tells you he has a good feeling about a reverse iron condor spread on the Japanese Yen, you really have no choice. If you don’t do it to him, somebody else surely will. -Eddie B.
