True, that, TR.
I also am reminded of a guy that worked at Boeing Helicopters in Ridley Park when I was a contracter there in the early 1990's. He was a law school grad, and he was making a very comfortable living working with government contracts for that firm. Technically speaking, he was not working as an attorney. But he obviously had training that stood him in good stead.
Most attorneys that I know also dabble with various business endeavors. I think that all would agree that their legal training is invaluable. Having a law degree in your hip pocket is very desirable.
I understand the point about "wasting time," but I suspect that it is a point made by a young man, who may be giving voice to impatience more than he realizes.
