Fuck Law School! Never have I worked so hard to feel like such a failure!

End Rant

Cool?

Story?

BRO!! Yes lol

Enthralling tale, chap!

Gripping yarn, fellow

Posting in a legendary thread.

LOL!

Charming anecdote, friend.

Public service announcement: the deadline to contribute to your 2011 Roth IRA is April 17th (thank you Patriot's day!).

Another way law school fucks you is by depriving you 3 years of lost income which you could have used to contribute to your Roth. Suppose instead of going to law school you worked a jobbaroo and contributed 5k each year for 3 years. After 40 years and an extremely conservative annual compounding rate of 5 %, you would have ~ $105,600.00 in the piggy bank which you could withdraw TAX FREE. But hey, it all evens out when you factor in the PresTTTige of the J.D.!

I would guess that if you could fuck law school, it would just lie there, impassive and bored. No thanks.

Not Cooley. Power bottom.

Just a reminder to any 0Ls who thought they should jump in here and make fun of the situations actual law students find themselves: get the fuck out of the Forum for Law School Students.

Not to name names, but El_Gallo and Blessedassurance.

This was disappointing. I was really hoping for a good rant before I went to bed.

Exactly!

Hi Hater! Bye Hater!

But you CAN contribute money from your scholarships and your summer earnings to your Roth. With little strain, you can still contribute the $5,000 annual maximum if you earn $20-32K in a biglaw summer. Law schools should not factor into financial aid eligibility summer earnings contributed to your IRA. Several top schools do not factor summer earnings into financial aid anyways.

I would not have felt the need to make this thread myself, but I recognize this is a perfectly valid reaction to law school.

The more you learn, the less you know.
