Good plan for the next ten years?

Apparently, this track worked for someone. The doctoral candidates for USC’s fiilm school are lawyers, business people (private or film related), and people who just want the degree.

How does a lawyer find time to be President of the United States? How does a lawyer teach? How does a lawyer do anything at all? If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t.

Pigeonholing a law degree to “lawyer who can’t do anything else” isn’t cool, or even a reality. Sure law professions suck up tons of time, but it isn’t forever. A bunch of law grads go into the field as a researcher or try some other endeavour: government, academics, business, etc.

The common denominator I see in all of your posts is: time consuming, expensive, and one should stop everything in their life after finishing and devote all of his or her time to the practice.
