[quote=Anonymous]I have been a lawyer for over 20 years and have enjoyed it. It's been good for me because: 1. I went to a cheap, public law school and had no debt 2. I went into public interest/government in a field I believe in and have never felt like I'm "selling out" or just working for money or representing people/causes I don't believe in 3. I do mostly appellate work, which suits my personality 4. I have a fairly predictable schedule and good work/life balance; only have to put in extra time on occasion when there's a crunch on a brief or prepping for oral argument. So, what I'm saying is that, if you find your niche, law can be rewarding. But, it's a field in which that is not always easy to do and there are a lot more miserable people than happy people.[/quote]
