2011统计：Consulting和Banking到底能赚多少钱？

楼上的计算is grossly off. 纽约不光有federal tax，还有city和state tax。

纽约做banking乱七八糟扣下来也有接近40%了吧。

The NYC Analyst
Let’s start with the base case of a newly minted investment banking analyst in NYC – after this, I’ll explain how it’s different in other regions, outside the US, and for associates on up.
If you earn a $70,000 base salary, that’s $5,800 per month (technically it is $5833.33333 but we’re using round numbers here).
Taxes are different for everyone, but with that level of income in NYC you’ll pay around $2,000 per month (34-35% rate) in federal, state, and city taxes – leaving you with $3,800 in after-tax income each month.
Manhattan is also the most expensive place to live in the US, and at the minimum you’ll spend $1,200 on rent (with a roommate) – but more likely you’ll spend $1,500 to $2,000 on rent.
So now you’re left with $1,800 – $2,300 per month of post-tax, post-rent income.

The banking figures posted before include no-name shops.
Bulge bracket number should look more like (roughly):

First Year Associate: 100K + 40K + 10K + 50K = 200K (stub)
Second Year Associate: 130K + 140K = 270K
Third Year Associate: 140K + 170K = 310K
Fourth Year Associate: 150K + 200K = 350K

This is for NYC. HK should be higher and London lower. And the differences should be even more pronounced on an after-tax basis.
