Are there folks doing well who don't have those things going for them?


Do you see attorneys who don't have these things going for them struggling to make a living? Is the debt they incurred getting a law degree a big factor? Or are they just not finding jobs period?

Yes.

That varies.

No, there are jobs in Louisiana. Most of them don't pay very well. There are folks all across Louisiana, particularly outside of New Orleans who went to LSU or Southern, who have been grinding it out for 10, 15, even 20 years and aren't bringing home 6 figures. Lots of them. And that is a poor return on the investment of time, energy, etc. For every Pat Morrow, there are dozens (hundreds?) like I've described.
