That's rather nice indeed; I think the mean earnings for lawyers aren't that high and there's quite a lot of variance, not?
(Unfortunately, this is a theoretical discussion for me, since I'd make a lousy lawyer.)
- pfedor 14y agoThe starting salary distribution for a lawyer is an interesting graph: http://www.nalp.org/salarydistrib http://www.nalp.org/salarydistrib Basically, after graduating from a law school you either get hired by a good law firm or not. In the former case, which happens to some 20% of graduates, your starting salary will be $160k. In the latter case your salary will be dictated by an unexciting distribution with the peak around $50k.
