Totally fine if its last years earnings and we are seeing it now. I hope it keeps up. Not sure the firm has any chance of going under- but people brought up howery. So who knows. Thanks to the posters who contributed relevant salient info! And weird that "killing it" is an 80s term. I'm pretty sure I picked it up from teens, Tweens, and athletes of late. Now that is embarrassing. Although big law wife thought killing only referred to hours being worked. I'm so confused!

Sure, totally great if last year's earnings, but that doesn't mean that your DH (I assume, though I am a partner DW) will see anything from all the hours he is working this month, or next month, etc.  Every year is different. So if you are rejoicing in February 2013 about some billings that took place in March 2012... good for you... but it predicts NOTHING about what is going to happen in March 2013, or July 2013, or December 2013.  Maybe the big draw will continue, perhaps your DH will get furloughed.  If you believe in jinxing things, I would not be posting about "killing it" in draws... Just MHO.
