When you get right down to, $100k isn't really enough to live on in NYC. Never quite understood why people put up with those prices. Needless to say, I'm staying in Chicago.

There are a lot of stories of interns, at least in the fairly recent past in the US, and it still happens elsewhere, going without pay and living a marginal but, um, interesting, i guess, existence in superstar firms. I had never heard of other members of the firms going without pay, but I believe it.
