The Beginning...


I know my life will include a house in Malibu, a Mercedes and my AGI will be $X and consist primarily of wages and profits earned from my law practice that I founded (of course all of my investments will always have a positive return on capital as well). I know I will have 2.3 children, with blond hair and blue eyes, and I will be able to take them to football, baseball, ballet, piano, etc. practice. This will all be possible because I will be such a successful attorney that I'll only have to put in a half day three days a week in order to earn my exorbitant salary of $X. There are essentially zero obstacles in my way.

My time in law school will be a joy! It won't be an excrutiating experience that physically and mentally drains me. Plus I am so smart I will get into an Ivy League School. I won't have $38,000.00 to pay for tuition, but, well, my parents are middle class, so that is a moot argument. This is perfect; I love Law & Order. I will be just like one of those powerful district attorneys in New York, prosecuting only bad people. And I won't ever feel remorseful, because the system is set up so perfectly that justice will always be served, and served upon the absolutely right entity.

I can't wait to start my tenure in law school. All of my friends say they are going to law school as well. And it's only a couple of years right? Wait, it's three years, and then I have to study for another summer for a three day test...?
