Haha.. I know lots of these types. Yeah, if someone gets a BA from an Ivy-League school and then graduates from a top 5 law school, then they're set for mucho dinero.
As a matter of fact, a relative went to Stanford undergrad and Georgetown Law, clerked in a coveted assignment, worked in corporate law a few short years - and hated that life and ended up making not mucho dinero but a decent income doing human resources/job placement for attorneys, not big bucks but is much happier.
The corporate law track means you have no life for quite some time.
There's no right or wrong career. There's nothing wrong with being an assistant principal, and it often allows for a better rounded lifestyle. Attorneys work all the time, which is why I believe people should work in what they are passionate in and success can follow, whether it be being a garbage man or graphic designer or artist or lawyer or attorney or President. The right job is the one you like doing and don't mind pulling hours for (and yes, I believe being a stay-at-home-mom can qualify as a full time job, too). Life is too short not to live it the way you want. Being happy is important.
I'm sorry to hear about his wife. Hopefully it isn't true. I thought the poodle part was cute/funny.
Well just think of a really really cute girl probably an 8 with a guy thats like 300 lbs..the say beauty is only skin deep..i don't know..and I know her family..she never came off like that before. It's like she got married and then she just ran with it.

Yeah, they definitely work for their money. Congrats to him for getting a great clerkship.
Happiness is very important, and different jobs and schedules make different people happy. I'm glad he didn't just chase money. Life is too short to live it out unhappy.

Hahahaha. Funny. But you know, looks aren't everything! Ideally, we love people for who they are inside and stay through thick and thin (easier said than done lol)... maybe she loves him no matter what lol. I hope he's happy at least.

That's true. Law firms are sweat shops and it's very easy to burn out. In fact, that's what happens to the overwhelming majority of people who go that route.
The few who make it to partner end up raking in tons of money though. Very darwinian.
Woman with a BA in CS/CL (Comparative Studies/Comparative Literature), essentially: philosophy. After graduation she worked as a receptionist for her brother's roofing business earning $50K a year. She now works for Boston Scientific, but I am unsure of her salary.
Woman with an A.A. in History/BA in History/Masters in Library Science. Works as an archivist for one of the New England states. She is a new hire (around two months), and I believe earns $48K or so.
Woman with BA in Art/Masters in Art (yup, simply "Art", not an MFA). She bounced around low paying jobs ($10/hr., give or take), for many years. I have not spoken to her in almost ten years. Last I heard she was working in the social services.

She worked at the family business and made 50k? Are you sure? That's too much for someone that answers phones and types up memos.
I know a lot of people (15-20) with masters and doctorates in I/O Psychology.
They make between 55k-135k, all are 32 or younger. I'd say the average that I know is around 80-85k. They all had undergrads in psychology.
