[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After I take the bar on July 29th-30th (New York), I'm going to start shopping for apartment rentals in New York City. Got a Biglaw offer there. I am a clueless introvert, and I want to start structuring my social life productively. [b]Everyone I socialize with must be a potential connection to a possible client.[/b][b] Apart from bar committees and expensive golf club memberships, what can I do in New York City to get into a social circle of high-net-worth individuals, businessmen, bankers, etc?[/b]

I was thinking of starting with any high school/college/law school friends I have in the city, but I was wondering how to socialize beyond that too. I am aware of Meetup.com and plan to utilize it too.

Any tips or advice would be helpful. I am really not good at this "game".[/quote]

That is so sad to me. For me, that seems like such an empty way to live :(
Not saying your way is wrong or worse. That might be the way that you get your joy in life, with that level of work and professional success- but I am just so opposite that. I hope that you are able to at least make a little time for your life away from work. Just like someone who is free-wheeling should make at least a little time to be a productive member of society![/quote]
