If you’re as smart as you say you are, why the hell did you go to law school?

June 6, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

Everyone (but you) already knows there are too many lawyers.

A law degree hasn’t been a bulletproof career booster for at least a decade.

If you really are qualified for Mensa membership (as you stated) then you’d have gone into engineering or one of the hard sciences.

You’d have taken the money you and your parents wasted on law school and used it as capital to start your own business.

Every time I swear I’ll never visit the League of Stereotypical Beta Males again, a blog post like yours reminds me why I keep coming back:

As painful penance for my many sins.
