Around Azeroth: That's what I want

Draenei lady Chocolate Snackoo knows there's nothing better than a good Terry Pratchett quote, so she sent this screenshot with the tagline "And she dreamed the dream of all those who publish books, which was to have so much gold in your pockets that you would have to employ two people just to hold your trousers up." True, that fits, but she could also be imitating Scrooge McDuck or the dragon from The Hobbit. Coincidentally, this is also the mental picture that flits through my head whenever I fill out law school applications.
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

Well then you're in for a big surprise. The median starting salary for a first year attorney is under 60k.
As a BigLaw lawyer in NYC, I can tell you that it's not pretty out here. Not to mention that everyone applies to law school during a recession, making admission that much harder.

Seconded.
That gold is a better representation of what you will be borrowing than what you will be making any time soon. Or maybe the dream you will have when you fall asleep doing doc review after graduation from a good school.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I'm going to go next year or wait to see what happens with the economy. I'll see how I did on the LSATs and then compare them with the standards of the schools I want to apply to.

"And she dreamed the dream of all those who publish books, which was to have so much gold in your pockets that you would have to employ two *gnomes* just to hold your trousers up."

Well, that depends on how tall you are.

Piles of gold fills your head when you fill out law school applications?
Please, do yourself a favor and investigate the profession and what the vast majority of all attorneys make before you think you're getting a license to print money.
Go to law school because you love the law and really want to be an attorney, not just to make money, otherwise you will be miserable.
The doc review comment is spot on, by the way.

No, no, no fellow attorneys: she's referring to the person in the picture as a law school administrator! They are the ones who give you one good year of education followed by two years of time wasting, all for the low low cost of $100,000 to $250,000. The picture could very well be of my law school dean in her office.
And the kicker...I'm in the middle of a 40,000 page doc review as I type this. Back to billables!

Ahh, much love for Pratchett.
I've got a Dibbler and a Salacia, and my bank alt is Lipwig.
