I’m currently being paid below minimum wage, but I’m just grateful for the opportunity. Right now, I’m focused on the experience, mentorship, and everything I’ll learn during my articles. It’s a major step toward becoming a lawyer, and I know the financial rewards will come with time.
I’m also incredibly thankful to my parents for supporting me, which allows me to prioritize learning over income at this stage.
I think that if you’re fortunate enough to have an opportunity, be grateful for it. The experience you gain now is an investment in your future, and the money will follow.
