re: Life as a Lawyer Advice Needed

I never said 300k was average at year 10 in Louisiana. The example I was given was 100-150. I have no idea what a Bucees manager makes. Just looked it up and it said 75k. Who knows.
In any event, Yes, most lawyers I deal with are partners in a law firm by year 10 and make 200-300k. I am not including government lawyers and I assume (but do not know ) that plaintiffs lawyers make this or more.
I am sure there are lawyers that struggle, but that is the exception not the rule. If you are billing 1800-2000 hours a year- do the math.
Practicing law is a great way to make a living in Louisiana if you are smart and willing to work hard.

You said:

Average 10 year lawyer in Louisiana is making double what a Bucee’s manager is making.
Which is about $300k.
Over $300k if you're a general manager
The problem with using this is that there are a lot fewer openings as a manager at Buccees than you'd think, not that LA lawyers make so much.

This statement is kind of funny on a few levels, given what you're selling/arguing.
