Investment bankers never have it easy in terms of hours and travel. If you are good, though, and work for a productive group, you can retire by your late 30s/early 40s with absolutely no financial worries for the rest of your life.

This is of course true for good traders too, and the hours in trading are much more civilized. The stress level is a lot higher though.
