[quote=Anonymous]The others are correct. Yes, it's harder for 30-somethings than it was for your generation, but we also aren't being sent off to die in Vietnam, so.....perspective. I finished law school in 2009, basically at the absolute trough of the job market, when law firms were deferring or withdrawing offers left and right. It was hard, we had a new baby, and I had to take a job that was a step down from what expected to be doing as a T1 law school grad with great grades and journal experience. But I did it because I didn't have a safety net. It was either step up or watch my family struggle. So I stepped up. I'm not some amazing bootstraps story - just a regular guy who found something worth working for. Let's hope your son can do the same, but first you need to give him some incentive. [/quote]
