College is a joke unless your wanting a highly specialized career. But here's the punchline; Get tossed out deep in debt, countless other people all wanting the same job(s). Some cases the workload/hrs involved all adds up to jack shit pay once you add in bills/expenses. Not to mention the sheer stress factor of it all to. So is it worth it?. I dunno. But here's another thing; Me, govt worker, I put in 40hrs week, I do jack shit. I have low stress. Can't get fired. No college degree (thus no debt bag), I can retire a nice clip before age 65 setup for life afterwards. I'm not hurting money wise. Go me.

Look anon, here's the truth. The jobs you want are all very, very competitive and companies will fuck you over. The jobs you don't want are plentiful, pay very little and expect you to slave away regardless if it makes financial sense for you.

The modern economy is made to enslave us. You can either play along with the system by getting your " education" and being a wagecuck, or find a way to survive off shitty jobs.

Take the LSAT and see what kind of options pop up if you get a good score. If you go to a highly ranked school and do good there, you should do okay. If you know a particular local industry and the schools that feed lawyers into said industry, you can try to break into that world. Just blindly going to a random mediocre law school with no plan along with the zillions of others doing the same thing is probably not going to end well.

Effort, my ass; I had straight As and had tested into the nationally-recognized local magnet high school, just like all of them (better, actually; higher-level math).

Fine if it's your own company but you're just a turbo slave. I struggle to see how you are better off than the warehouse worker. I'm rich miser, so I feel pain when spending money and only enjoy hoarding it + spending time with the family. I work as little as possible for as much money as possible. How did they brainwash you into doing this off your own free will. Are you from a third world country trying to bring your family out of starvation?

My parents were refugees from a country in Asia that America bombed to shit. It's one of the few things that brings me some comfort is knowing that my parents are one of the success stories from working in laundromats and cabbies to having a son as one of the top white collar professions. But yeah I agree, I fell for the meme, I'm not a slave to the firm because I can leave and go to another, but I'm a slave to the profession overall. When the numbers are done, I'm not making that much more than OP in his warehouse gig considering the amount of hours I need to put in. How did they brainwash me? Like I said, the prestige and knowing that I command the respect of people around me is nice. I can easily get a date with most girls by just dropping the fact that I'm a lawyer, I can pretty much ask any dude to hang out and be my friend because on the occasion I go out all my friends brag that I'm a lawyer when introducing me. But, I just don't have the time or energy to actually try and meet a nice girl, or go for drinks with friends. But I don't know what else to do. People around me take notice that I'm a lawyer, and if I'm not, then I would feel like I failed. Could be worse though, there's no physical toll for myself as a lawyer, while my friend who is an ER doctor is on his feet for 48 hours straight with no time to sit down.

>being this salty
I am very happily making less in exchange for having zero stress, a job that is essentially paying me to spend all day at the gym, and 4 days off a week. My warehouse is located in a beautiful mountain valley that also has an extremely low cost of living. My rent is $500 for an apartment that is much nicer than the one I was paying 3x the price for when I was living in the nearest city and making $70/hr. If I was offered my old job back at $140/hr I would turn it down. I actually enjoy my life now and will never again trade peace of mind for money.

Some day, you may realize that there are things that are more important than money. Hopefully you won't have wasted too much of your youth chasing after it by that time.

Uhuh, it looks like the acting you do in furtherance of the delusion of legalism has transcending into your private life.

>But, I just don't have the time or energy to actually try and meet a nice girl, or go for drinks with friends.
Yeah, you just claimed you have no problem meeting girls or making friends, then finish of with "I don't have time for any of that" effectively saying you are a virgin that nobody likes.

>But I don't know what else to do. People around me take notice that I'm a lawyer, and if I'm not, then I would feel like I failed.

Yeah it does. Every time I tell people I'm a lawyer there's always a visible reaction, and always a positive one. Either they become more reverent towards me if they're a guy, if they're a girl they become a lot more interested and friendly towards me. Personally I expected people to make lawyer jokes at me when I tell them, but that's actually never happened once. People seem to dislike the idea of lawyers or not like us in the abstract, but in person I've never had someone react or treat me negatively once they know what I do for work.

It's something about the land having to be removed from the list of agricultural areas which are heavily regulated and protected (eg here you can't farm if you don't have some kind of relevant training or education) so it's basically like a severance penalty.

Go to a parking lot in any hospital and point out the doctor who is showing up in a KIA or Hyundai. You cannot do good by satan, period. It doesn't work like that. Even people who wanted to be physicians, but got suckered into the medical system and contracted with the medical board to be allowed to "practice medicine" either drop out or shut up and accept the petty trinkets for their servitude.

People need to learn and understand some basic facts.
>Practice of law
This is a COMMERCIAL for-profit activity, and it is regulated by the BAR of a given state. Your lawyer has a BAR contract, so does the actor playing "judge", and if you are accused of a crime, the prosecutor also has a BAR contract. Soooo...tell me, how is this an unbiased application of law when you have three people in obvious collusion deciding how much $$$ they want to rape you for. Is that equal protection?

>Practice of medicine
Similar to practice of law, it is a commercial activity. You can cure most ailments with 1 tsp of turpentine mixed with 1 tsp of sugar, once or twice daily. Your doctor will never try to make you better, they will use vague diagnoses to prescribe various pharma chemicals they claim are treatments (never cures).

>98% of humanity is garbage though, in white countries. Everywhere else 100% is garbage.
