My brother's friend is 42 and retiring from the NYPD as a captain. He had a job offer for $110K as a director of security but he turned it down for law school! Unreal. Un-f'n-real. He got in to Fordham and deferred; he's thinking about NYLS at possibly 90% to full ride. Dumb, dumb, move.

He's doing fine--his retirement benefits are almost certainly extremely generous. Seems perfectly reasonable for someone in that position to choose to go to a TT with a free ride in order to pursue something they are interested in, which in the case presumably doesn't include the sort of soul crushing biglaw work that most of xo focuses on.

Turning down a 6-figure chill gig for ls is a dumb move anyway you look at it.
