Why do people refuse to admit how much people make on Wall Street? Enough with the "NO WAY PEOPLE MAKE 100k THEIR SECOND YEAR" stuff- first year Goldman analysts made anywhere from 130k to 170k last year with bonus.

I have two friends who graduated from Michigan this year. One is working for Goldman Sachs and the other is working for Bears Stearns. Their salaries are both high fifties to low sixties.

You said first year Goldman analysts, but you didn't mention that you need experience for that position. It's not something you get straight out of college.

Uh- I'm living proof that you can get Goldman right out of college (and not from a "target school" too!).

Go to Goldman if you are offered it. The people there are the BEST on the Street for a reason.
