Given that most law grads I know are buried in debt and thus really can't think about joining a start-up, I find myself wondering whether the author is unique in that he has no debt and therefore has this choice in the first place. For most people in this position, I would argue, there isn't much of a choice. He does raise good points about raising a family - start-ups can definitely give you more flexibility. But, on the other hand, going home and telling your wife that the start-up you joined has failed and you're out of a job isn't easy. Granted, that can happen at any job. This post will likely come off as way too negative, but I certainly do wish him well in his path - the legal profession could certainly use the overall.
