[quote=Anonymous]Noticed she was in biglaw. Often biglaw people complain A LOT after going anywhere else - inhouse, gov't etc. - no matter how much they wanted to leave bc they constantly look back at the fact that they were making 200k+ as first yrs and now they aren't. Other thing I noticed in biglaw - not everyone (most?) don't leave with huge nest eggs. Most use all of their bonuses and would-be savings to pay off loans, save for a down payment, take some lavish vacations, throw themselves a fancy wedding - or all of the above. So they don't go into a 150k job cruising and thinking - just have to max out the TSP and my other assets will continue to grow; rather they are then in savings mode - which is harder at 150k than it would have been at 250k. From what I could tell from friends, not that many associates were leaving with a few hundred thousand in invested assets.[/quote]
