> ALL LARGE law firms pay north of 100k. The top ones pay $160k, I think, 145 is avg. A vast majority of the large law firms paid north of 100k ten years ago.

Oh, this is embarrassing :smack:

If you look at the post I was quoting, I mistyped … I know places pay $100k, I was wondering which pay $500k for the first year, which I still doubt.

Even hedge funds don’t typically pay that much first year right, let alone law firms?
