If you have a job in Stamford and commute from NYC, you're doing yourself a disservice.

Why the hell would you commute from NYC to Stamford? It would typically be the other way around. And from Harlem!?

Take the better paying job in Stamford and get a place there.

Come into the city when you want to "go out".

So how is that a disservice? If the commute isny an issue for some one then so be it. And the the commute doesnt really bother me as I do not Metro North it all the time. Driving is 40 minutes.

No, I dont think that "is not so a problem".

Faster than Metro North.

I have a friend who works at a hedge fund in Stamford. He commutes, by car, everyday from the UES. He doesn't mind the commute, especially in the morning because there is essentially no traffic when he leaves (which is around 6:30am-7am). During bad weather (especially snow). he takes the metro north.

My point exactly. Driving is faster due to reverse commute. We may work at the same Hedge Fund
