News has gotten out how flame it is. The kids 5 yrs younger than us lost a lot of respect for it after they heard about all the unemployment, how people flame out, layoffs, etc. It's uncouth now. Plus tech pays even more. Before it was consulting vs law for a lot of ppl and law pays more. And I think millennials wanted to do something that wasn't so much like their parents do. Most of their parents were in some business role. Law was like a compromise .. "I'm not like my parents but still make good money" type of thing
