[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a lawyer and enjoy it, but frankly I think my kid could do better. For a lot of people, including me, lawyer is a reliable transition path for kids from working class or LMC families. The next generation has more options, and is more likely to have a safety net that makes it easier to take risks. [/quote] What do you think "better" is? I thought medicine may be better in that it seems more purposeful and often higher paying, but people on here complain about that as well.[b] As an aside, I think it would be difficult to go from WC/LMC to BigLaw. Maybe from a funded Ivy undergrad, though.[/b] [/quote] Ugh, DCUM... You don't need to go to "BigLaw" to have a wonderful career practicing law. Sigh. In fact, it is probably best avoided by most.
