[quote=Anonymous]I like the law. I even (most of the time) like my job as a biglaw attorney. I find the work challenging and my colleagues (for the most part) collegial. It isn't for everybody, but I have made it work for me (been in biglaw for the past 7 years). That said, no way is it worth it for your brother. I find myself somewhat lucky to have gotten a biglaw associate gig here, and I graduated magna cum ladue from a top 20 law school (not local though). Many of my friends had real trouble getting jobs after graduating - even ones who were in the top third of our class. I also graduated with only $40k in debt (no undergrad debt). Makes a HIUGE difference. I don't think people truly understand how crippling education debt can be and your brother already has an aweful lot of it. Please please please show him this thread. Law school is a mistake for him.[/quote]
