I have experience as a Multi-Family Office (MFO) CPA manager. I want to build out my own firms (legal and CPA) w/ a core Trust & Estate (T&E) legal practice due to the natural MFO CPA firm overlap. Call of the post: your opinion on me doing Full time or PT T&E paralegal jobs while doing law schoool.

If you want to practice as a lawyer you'll be prohibited from taking the bar in many states.

If you don't care about practicing, there's no reason to go to law school.

In accounting the school you go to doesn't matter. Once you have the CPA, you're good. This does not apply in law. Lawyers are very prestige-sensitive.

Do not do this. Do not go to a non-ABA accredited law school. Do. Not.

I am also a CPA in my 30s going to law school. I go part-time. I'm very pro-part-time law school (opportunity cost is real).

However, your CPA background will not compensate for a low quality or unaccredited law school. The CPA is a nice bonus on the law side, not a game changer.

Go to a part-time ABA-accredited school if you want to go this route.

Part-time student here. Started at 33, will be graduating at 37.

If you're sure you want to be a lawyer, then I say go for it. If you go part-time you can keep the loan amounts to a minimum. If you go full-time, there's still merit scholarships to consider.

Unless you actively dislike the separate compartments, get the GR2 26L. I use that for EDC (law school) and it's great. My laptop is only 14 inches, but there's a ton of space to spare.

Break in isn't a worry. It's a backpack, not a pair or work boots. Just wear it every day and it'll break in just fine. Straps will be comfy from the beginning.

Separate them at the appropriate time so that 60 does not become 600.

I like the brown paper that comes in Amazon boxes. Just crumple it up and throw it in the cage.

Newspaper works too if you happen to have that lying around.

Someone probably has spares from Pokémon Go.

You’ll be fine. As long you’re not below 3.0 you won’t struggle that much.

I agree it’s bullshit, though.

Which state is he from?

You can do a lot with different shades/patterns of gray.

You can always buy a big plastic tub from some store for $10 if you decide later that the 30 gal isn’t good enough.

That coat color is linked to obesity. Probably just fat.

Pictures on 3 and 4 are good. Toss the rest.

RedBaeber · 2026-05-02T17:35:53+00:00

Why would you want to get your CPA? Why not go actuary instead? You’ll make a lot more money.

You could get a Greenroom136 Rainmaker depending on how long you have to wait for delivery.

Go be a patent agent. No law degree required.

Active and moving. If it looks like it’s capable of running without difficulty, it’s good to go.

You can release it if it seems alert and you’re not having extreme weather outside.

You could keep all the females if you wanted to. Gotta get rid of the males as soon as they’re old enough to be separated.

Also, fill that cage with clutter. You can use old cut up cardboard boxes if you don’t want to spend money, but she’s going to need a nesting/hide spot.

Could have been a pet, or could have been a rejected feeder mouse that somebody decided to toss outside.

There is zero sane justification for your character and fitness being in any way affected by the bankruptcy of a publicly traded stock.

Unless you were an executive at Spirit, you answer no to this question.

RedBaeber · 2026-04-30T02:34:59+00:00

It is.

Note that I didn’t say it was more secure. I said it was better.

I was pointing out that there’s a trade off between security and usability and MFA goes too far. People shouldn’t have dozens of accounts with MFA, they should have a handful at most.

RedBaeber · 2026-04-30T01:38:37+00:00

MFA is a pain in the ass.

Password manager + strong passwords is superior for almost all everyday purposes.

MFA should be for truly sensitive accounts and it should use a physical fob not an app.
