While there are special circumstances in Pop's case, it is amazing how many lawyer quit or never even go into the law after law school. That's a lot of time, money and effort to put aside, but it happens quite often.
Karl Llewellyn wrote an excellent book about the study and practice of law, The Bramble Bush: On Our Law and Its Study (1930). One could dismiss it as an exercise in cynicism, but I'm glad that I read it before starting law school.
