- cplease 11y agoI doubt there are more lawyers than engineers paying $4K rent in SF. But whatevs.
- DannyBee 11y ago+1 For all this talk about how engineers "might" get laid off, this completely ignores the massive contraction of the legal market that has already happened. Outside of a few specific areas of law, and a few high powered law firms, lawyers don't make that much money. My ex, a nationally renowned family lawyer in literally the richest area of the country doesn't make more money than i do (and she runs her own firm, so it's not like she is being kept down by partners).
- ryanSrich 11y agoYeah the comment about lawyers and bankers making more than engineers is straight out of 1995. Outside of highly specialized degrees in medicine there really isn't any other jobs out there paying a white collar wage ($100K +).
