[quote=Anonymous]There are so many colleges, law schools, etc. in small college towns with excellent cost of living. My DH is a law professor and we live in one of these. We can afford to live how we want to live -- private school, international trips, sabbaticals abroad, etc. I can afford a housecleaner if I wanted but I prefer to clean my own house and mow my own grass. Then I can use that money to travel. We specifically chose this place over Georgetown because I felt I'd be stuck working in biglaw forever to give our kids the same opporutnities in DC. No regrets! The prof friends who stayed in big cities are the only ones who complain about compensation (adjuncting is a different story....people do that because they want to have the resume line, not to make money. They'd make more as a barista). [/quote]
