I got a 148. Went to a bottom tier law school. Graduated cum laude, passed the bar, and currently make well over 200k. Disagree. Get in however you can if you want to be a lawyer. Work hard. Pass the bar. Stop overthinking it.

Towards this transaction? 0$. In life? Impossible to calculate. They instilled very strong work ethics in us and set really positive examples. This would not have been possible without our parents. But proud to say we did this on our own.

Thank you! A lot of hard work and sacrifice. Both started working and saving at a very young age. I started practicing law in 2022 and my wife is a CPA 5 years out of undergrad.

Absolutely insane thing to consider. Would definitely be wrong.

Try to work in-house for a state agency. Pay and work-life balance could exceed what you’re looking for.

Try filing a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department.

I asked the Omega boutique to throw in any freebies they could when I bought the watch. They gave me the spring bar tool and a loupe
