my goal now is to steer my kid into something else. i have been drilling in her since she was young that she is required to open a cafe / art gallery that I can chill at in my old age |

There is a reason white shoe firms did corporate and nothing else. It can be interesting intellectually, the work can be learned, it addresses business directly and you get to work with business people.
Corporate litigation (outside a few specific niches) and corporate compliance and all the other swamplands are absolutely TTT and unworthy of consideration. |
