[quote=Anonymous]This is my friend who is also an estate attorney. She graduated from Ivy League, spent some time in investment banking, but when a kid came along it was not sustainable anymore (her husband had a career on Wall street too). She quit, had another child who turned out to have some special needs. But my friend couldn't be a completely SAHM because she said she physically felt her brain rotting. She thought about how she can apply herself while making her own hours and decided that getting a law degree and eventually her own practice is the way. Since she knew she would be working for herself she did not care about the brand name, so she went into the state school that was a convenient commute and her degree cost her <$30K. The kids are now in HS and she has a thriving practice.[/quote]
