For 160k 180k, but i regret it. Would have made as much money without the stress in the long run.

Doing what?

Typical office job, if you count for the 3 years of lost income while in law school and the salary cut after lasting in big law for 2-3 years.

Because it provides a fresh start and a high odds shot at a high paying/impressive career even if you spent your high school and college years getting fucked up and dicking around.

It offers moderate to low odds at a high paying/impressive career.

I wanted to live that big law life, the money, the bottles, the models.

If you had to choose just one, would you choose money, bottles, or models?

I realize this wasn't directed at me, but I'm pretty sure the money and bottles are just a means to get the models.

So models. The answer is models. If anyone here would pick being rich with good liquor over beautiful women, I don't know what the fuck is wrong with you.

I know right, that would mean you might be gay or something. /s

I was really interested in insurance and insurance law.

Nice. I've always had a passion for due diligence. Especially reviewing and slightly modifying the work product of others.

You're not wrong but at least you get to see your odds (once you get your LSAT, you kinda know) before you commit to going.

Let me rephrase that. It offered *me* high odds at a high paying/impressive career due to my school options.
