    How hard is it to be one of the lawyers that make like $100k+ a year after getting done with law school?

      ^^ It depends where you go to school amd where you live. It also depends on what you want to do. But for the most part...Right after law school? Somewhat difficult. But within about 5 years, it is pretty easy. Honestly a lot of lawyers are fucking morons. So just having a semi-pleasant personality and not being retarded generally means you can make a decent living. There are a lot of lawyers out there not making money, but they are generally fuck ups that would not have been successful in any realm. A lot of grads think that since they are out of school they should start raking it in, but generally you still don't know anything when you get out of school. So if you actually learn how to do something, your value goes way up quickly.

      Why are you looking for a career path?

Theoretically if you are making a mockery of the court, you could be held in contempt, but that wouldn't be enough... people work their speech patterns around pop culture all the time. What is he going to say, "is that a line from a movie? Contempt!" I would have have appealed and filed an ethics complaint against him after I won. Then I would have tried to remove him from all my cases... lawyers can fuck with judges just as much as the other way around.
        Okay, cool.

        Well if you ever get the chance in the future I want you to work this into one of your goings on:

          Pretty much. I have been interested lately in criminal justice/education fields, and I kind of have this plan to go into some sort of law enforcement for 20 years, retire, get my retirement pension, then go teach when I am in my 40s. But I don't know... I am still trying to figure shit out. I am almost done with my first two years in college so that means I need to have something to study after this instead of these general courses.

            ^^ well hit me up in a pm and I will give you the straight truth about how much you can make and what good options are. I applied to the FBI and passed 2 of their tests and then changed my mind. My buddy applied at the same time and I know exactly how much he makes, he gets a pension also, and how difficult it is to get those jobs (not difficult for JDs). If you are going to be a cop, law school is a good idea, but not the only way to get those jobs (but it is the easiest route IMO).

I was doing a jury trial on a dumbass criminal case and the State objected to one of my questions... I go " The defense didn't have an opportunity to depose this witness, your honor. I'd ask the Court for a little latitude." I guess it was too obvious because the judge actually started laughing... Later he made himself part of the game and he would work movie lines into the script in open court. That job was a good time, too bad it paid next to nothing.

              lol that would have been great to watch .

                Paulo Thiago is out with an "undisclosed injury". He just knows he was going to lose.

                  ^^^I actually think Thiago had a shot of winning that one but Castillo vs Stevenson is a much more intersting fight insertSarcasm.jpg

                      ^^What do you guys think about that fight? At first glance I noticed the majority of Tavares' losses (and draws) are to wrestlers/top control guys..Pellegrino, Lentz, and Griffin.

                        My knee jerk reaction is to take Tavares but I'll have to look at it

                          Tavares is pretty good.
