What's wrong with his lawyers' getting paid? Sure, they may get paid a lot, but lawyering is actually quite hard, requires grueling hours in a frequently miserable office culture, and typically requires large amounts of educational debt (the average law school grad has debt in the mid $100,000s). Most of my friends are lawyers (and yes, I am too) and I can tell you that very few of them are living fun lives. I'm not saying they deserve anyone's sympathy. Objectively speaking, of course, most lawyers are doing pretty well (though there's this: http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/19/us/lawyer-suicides/ http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/19/us/lawyer-suicides/). But I don't see how there's anything wrong with somebody paying their fees. They are earning them, after all.
