[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It all depends what he makes, PP, and where he is partner.  There are in big DC firms where partners make far less than I make (non-partner at non-DC firm).  And there are places where partners make $10 million or more per year.  A partner making $1 million or more is pretty common, even for non-rainmakers, in some firms.

We could do it pretty easily if we wanted to, but we would have to sell our second home for us not to feel house poor, and we don't want to do that yet.  It isn't clear to me that you really get that much more for $2 million than our current $1.25m house anyway.  [b]What I'd really like to know is how to afford a $3+ million house![/b][/quote]
I am a biglaw partner and I never heard of any making $10 million.  (But I also doubt there are any DC partners making "far less" than a nonpartner at a non-DC firm).  Generally speaking if a 40ish YO partner buys a $2M house, I think they've overbought.  I know a handful of people with $3M houses.  Most are heart surgeons.  [/quote]
