do you regret going to law school

<p>I don’t regret law school at all - I had the time of my life. I had my masters degree and had worked for 3 years and was ready to enjoy school again. I had a group of very tight knit friends and we had a blast. I thought law school was easier than undergrad. I can’t say I enjoyed practicing, but I was lured away from what I really wanted to do and went for the “biglaw” money. I only lasted 3 years before I went into business. It was easier way back then - 25 years ago - because I went in state and it was much cheaper. I rented a cottage and rode my bike to class and had a great job on campus for all 3 years. I’m not sure I’d do it now if it meant taking on significant debt. If no debt, what have you got to lose? Just don’t let the golden handcuffs get you - financially, try to leave the door ajar to be able to try something else if you hate it.</p>
