I am a banker lol, and I must say a lot of you have far too much time on your hands, we are paid well for various reasons, but exc. bonuses as an hourly wage, we're pretty much shop assistants. If you worked 16 hour days you'd want double the wages you would otherwise get normally, and the bonuses, well that about makes up for the weekends and holidays I've sacrificed and the fact that due to a Blackberry when I get home I'm still working, so I think I deserve a pretty good nightlife when I finally do get to go out
Anyway that's my two cents. If the op wants to get an idea of average salaries, I would recommend you go to the careers sites such as Hays or Reed HK as they publish yearly salary surveys or alternativly use a site like glass door.
