  1. @brian8793 ,

    It’s not what you know but, WHO YOU KNOW!!!! he is the 1% out of 100% PURE LUCK!! i have known several collegues that graduated from Ivy League schools and are unemployed!

  2. What US State Sponsored Terrorism says is sad, but probably true. A great many illegals with the equivalent of 8th grade educations probably earn more than most law school graduates and they don’t have any debt.

  3. I’ll even go further with you guys on the bet. I’ll bet that I can show that the income of these Mexs is more than ANY of you guys who have been attorneys for up to 5 years; I don’t care where you work! The President of the university where I taught doesn’t make as much in a year as one of these guys in ONE MONTH! Here’s another example of what a joke our education is.. In my college we are threatened that if we don’t pass all black students, our teaching contracts won’t be renewed!!!

  4. I challenge ANY OF YOU who are lawyers to compare your documented income here online with the tax forms of 3 illegal Mexican friends of mine who work in construction and who are under 30 yrs old! If you will put your income statements online I will post their tax declarations for everybody to see. I have been a college instructor for the past 25 years and I say AMERICAN EDUCATION IS A FRAUD! These Mexicans,n only 7 years of working here, now have 3 new houses each,completely paid 4 in Mexico!

  5. If ignorance of the law is no excuse, who can I look to sue to pay to put me through law school so I don’t unintentionally break some obscure law which I could possibly be arrested for, seeing as the government is out to make everyone criminals by way of these obscure laws?

  6. @JoblessJane The reality is that unless your going to one of the top schools like Harvard or Yale dont even bother going to law school. Probably the top 30 or 40 at the most. definitely dont go if all you could get into is some 2nd tier or 3 or 4th tier school. They need to shut down about half of all law schools its as simple as that.

  7. Last but not least, if you score a great Scholly, say 50 to 100% of tuition, ALWAYS VERIFY for stipulations. If it says “Be in the Top-30%” or anything similar, tell them to fuck off.
    Even better, leverage this Scholly with better ranked/or lower ranked schools and make them give you similar funding without those strict stips.

    DO NOT PAY STICKER unless it’s HYS, make this fact enter your fucking head before even applying to Law School.

  8. Steps to not end up sad after graduation:

    1)Don’t enroll in a Law School ranked lower than Top-30.
    2)Do NOT pay sticker unless it’s HYS.
    3)Work your ass off to make it Top 40% in 1L and network while you’re still at school.
    4)When OCI starts, don’t shoot for the fucking moon and try to apply to jobs who fit realistically with your School Rank and grades.(That means, don’t interview for firms where 80 % + of the associates they had graduated from a T-14).

    There you go, hope it helps.

  9. I’ll never forget having this law graduate preparing my taxes for HR Block. The guy was so miserable because he could not find a job.

  10. @brian8793

    I don’t know what you are smoking. Have you read the newspaper recently? In california they have sliced so many teaching jobs that they aren’t hiring anyone. I know teachers with credentials that work as cashiers at walmart.

    Go to shit law jobs . com and see how lawyers are not commanding high salaries now. Unless you graduate from a top law school or you are undefeated in court. I know because my friend is a partner at a top 100 law firm.

    New grads are a dime a dozen.

  11. what you shoulda wrote is “if you can type, you can be a lawyer” lol …. i just hope you did in fact go to law school, since most people who say higher education is over rated are still the idiots that only have a HS education LOL.

  12. @HomePersonalSecurity As much as they might be the scum of the earth in general, there a a small amount of honest lawyers. And we need them, especially the lower than life ambulance chasers

  13. @brian8793 Good for your brother yet I’ve see tons of lawyers who don’t go onto doing that after school. So I’m curious what school?

  14. @snackajack117 Thank you for your kind advice but you should know that youtube is not a contract… and when i draft a contract I will use it correctly. My advice is not to make early decisions just from youtube comments, if u are a lawyer too u will need a skill of knowing people and making correct decisions and views about persons…deal with it.

  15. @Georgianable It was some simple advice; people are not always aware of how their writing comes across. I know English people who write badly and non-native English speakers who write immaculately. If you want to conduct legal work in English you will need to be in the latter category. If you are not planning on drafting contracts in English, I take it back.

  16. @snackajack117 Oh and… till I get 22 years old I will study somehow how to use punctuation correctly in English , I am not drafting contacts yet I am first year student…

  17. @snackajack117 Punctuation has different rules in different languages, you are from UK and English is your first language but not mine. So it’s just really folly from your side to speak about punctuation with me, it’s not at all insulting to me, I am not English to speak, write, and spell perfectly, I speak my language Georgian really well also old Georgian and I speak old and new Greek languages and Russian too, so your poor scoldings of punctuation is just marasmus and nothing else for me.

  18. @snackajack117 Oh that’s funny haha, when I draft a contact I will pay attention to it, but I don’t think youtube is a place where I have to foresee punctuation rules and I just smile when you try to make my rank down with your scoldings like a philologist. It’s marasm to talk about punctuation on Youtube comments, I think you are one from the lawyers who didn’t get a job, may be because of your character.

  19. @brian8793 We should start taxing people like your brother at 50% of his income so that we can make more jobs through the state. This feast or famine economy causes suicides and depression- your brother is partly to blame.
