i wanted to become a lawyer because of phoenix wright when i was a kid
i wonder if that was their intention
>insert /pol/ conspiracy about how phoenix wright was made by the government to make more lawyers
but then i realized you would have to defend petty crimes and clearly guilty people if you want to make money
>>1864967
I'm a lawfag, the big money is in business. Never have to defend a guilty person, just represent business against wage claims, discrimination claims, etc.

that sounds fun and mellow
I have seen jobs advertise as low as 20 an hour for a lawyer in Vacaville, CA
If I were to go to Puerto Rico or Montana Uni (cheapest law schools) and pass my bar in California, Oregon, Washington or Nevada would I be looking at $20 jobs, like the lawyer guy on reddit who was working as an uber driver?

Stay out of Montana faggot

This is actually what real lawyers do.
Take /biz/ for example:
On an average day we have 3 people claiming to be business owners living of their enterprise, 2 people claiming to be millionaires, and 5 people claiming to be lawyers.
Now compare this to US stats, where there are 28 million business owners, 10.4 million millionaires, and 1.3 lawyers.
By these ratios we would expect /biz/ to actually have over 100 successful business owners, about 50 millionaires, and 0 lawyers.
So we see that /biz/ has 200 TIMES MORE LAWYERS than expected on any given day, based on demographics in the US.
Clearly lawyers do nothing but shitpost on /biz/ all day every day. Probably charge us $275/hour to do it, too.
>>1866117
wow, no wonder your state is so poor
>>1866158
well Massachusetts has more lawyers than all of Japan
>>1866169
To highlight the oddity of how many lawyers lurk /biz/, it would be like if we had 200 tile guys posting here every day. Or 200 janitorfags checking in daily.
A person seriously has to wonder what it is about this board that attracts so many lawyers while simultaneously driving off so many business owners and millionaires. It's a complete mystery really.

There are about as many medical doctors as there are lawyers in the US.
Based on the number of lawyers posting here daily we should see AT LEAST FIVE MEDICAL DOCTORS POSTING HERE EVERY FUCKING DAY.
I've never seen a single one. We should see 4 electricians posting here daily, and 4 different plumbers posting all day every day. It's surprising when we get one.
Clearly 4chan in general and /biz/ in particular are some sort of lawyer-nectar they're drawn to inevitably like flies to shit. They can't stay away. The probably discuss threads at legal conventions and talk about how they really trounced that one anon. Or perhaps it's part of the curriculum, you can't graduate until you've won at least 20 arguments on 4chan. Hard to say, perhaps one of our lawyers can clue us in.

if you have the nerves to go through 5 years of non stop learning 1000s of pages of ridiculous detailes by heart to end up in an underpaid job (if any)
