If the Big Law ship has sailed and someone is making 55-60k a year with 200 k in law school debt, would this be better for someone who thinks they will love the job? I could go make that same money right after college with my engineering degree, but I have had an engineering internship and know that I wouldn’t like the work. Honestly, if I could still live reasonably with that debt and payload, and enjoy my work, I would be happy. No, it’s not ideal, but who cares. Nothing is ever really ideal, and the economy sucks, anyways.
