[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's so wrong with doing this? Don't know where OP is salary wise, but say he's at 160k now. As counsel in biglaw, he'd make double that (likely more but conservative 2x). Even if it only lasts for 2 yrs, don't you walk away with a few hundred thousand in hand? Say the worse happens -- you're unemployed after 2 yrs at counsel and then it take you 18 months to find another gig -- you still walk away net positive from the money you made at counsel. Gov't lawyers are a bit too conservative.[/quote] Good points. And yes, they are very risk averse.[/quote]
