Firm is white shoe V20. Did a corporate rotation with some M&A experience and some securities work. Mainly diligence but now just barely. Beginning to have responsibility for certain filings and parts of the deal. How in trouble am I ?

40k UG debt. NYU at sticker. Had to get 25k cash reserve. Spend 2200 on rent including utilities and have a relatively modest rest of my budget. Hope bonuses pick up though. Worried I may be I trouble because people start getting pushed out around now but I have good reviews and think I may be competitive in the lateral firm market.

You are fine. That debt kinda sucks though, but beats not having BIGLAW with no debt.

Stop spouting childish nonsense.

Most jobs are soul crushing and killselfworthy. A lot of his exit options however also happen to pay very well.

feel your pain, bro. 2nd year with 150k, so not quite as bad, but it's a shitty feeling to be 'trapped.' i'd probably be working this job even if i was debt free, but i hate not having the tell-the-boss-to-go-fuck-himself option. also, bonuses are going to be shit this year. probably same as last year, but more likely to go down than up.

Crazy that the average T14 is now 250k sticker once you account for accrued unsubsidized interest. It's really not that far fetched for some students to come out of a T20 UG with 30k debt and 280k after sticker at NYU/CLS if they don't take the $ at a lower school.

oh, hai me in 2 years. first year associate, also paid NYU at sticker - will be lucky if i knock my debt down below $200k at the end of my first year. i also can't see myself staying in this job longer than 3 years, at which point i have no idea what i'll do but i'm sure it will involve having to change my repayment terms to spend the next 27 years laboring to meet my monthly minimum payments.

i might remain a lawyer, but 75% of the associates at my firm are gone after the first 3 years, and if i'm honest with myself, there's no way i have more stamina than they do.
