consulting! would be a good way too, like a poster above mentioned. Maybe you won't make as much, but I think you'll have more freedom, well, i guess it depends on your personality, and how you want to live your life.
 
i had an IB internship in college. found out it wasn't for me. yeah, the money is good, but you won't have a life outside of work at all.

that's pretty bad ass. traders get paid a lot, but if this man is only 25 right now, i would say he must have been one hell of a trader

you mean the 2L summer? that doesn't sound right... that might be the equivalent annual salary on the low end, but not how much you get paid just for a summer of work...

Bullsh!t. The top students usually obtain jobs at BigLaw firms during the summer of their 2L, but it's pretty much standard that they all get paid $2400 a week, translating to roughly 30k for the summer.

Because US already has too many worthless lawyers and there are other fields/professions that make just as much/more.

the salaries mentioned above are for the top law firms, not everybody can get into them, and the lifestyle is not for everybody (i.e., sacrifice yourself to the firm).

My brother is starting tomorrow at AT Kearney as a Business Consultant. He's a sophmore in undergrad and will make about $1150 a week for 10 weeks. Wish him luck🙂
