LOL yeah. The shitlawyers are making like 50k in some places. The doc review drones aren't doing well overall. And then of course you have the 50% plus of law grads who cannot even get a real jerb and are doin non law shit or pathetic shit like being a paralegal for 60k

While it's true that 70K in AC might be 100K in a big city (50K in AC might be 100K in MFH), just like the 100K dude in Boston will struggle to live anything but a middle class lifestyle, the 70K AC dude is not exactly balling. The difference is that the Boston dude has a higher ceiling whereas the AC lawyer is stuck forever.

Last year was my first year as a solo. I'm not actually sure what my total pre-tax income was including a couple months before leaving my firm, but it was probably under $100k.

you might also be interested to know that over 90% of XOers are taller than 6'1", have girth coke can cocks that split toilet paper tubes into shreds, have objective 8 girlfriends/wives, and could rush for ~30 yards in an NFL game with decent blocking.

only about 5% of the posters are physically infirm NOWAGs, NOWIGS, and jew nebbishes attending or recently graduated from TTTs with $200K in debt.

ROFL, a SIGNIFICANT number, at least a solid plurality of lawyers, are making less than 100K. True, in some of these lower COL areas 100K goes a lot further, but that's still pretty pathetic for the opportunity cost of law school and shitty career that is law.
