Say goodbye to the dream

[dlv54]

the ev of trading v. ev of playing/doing something else should be less of a consideration than the long hours/ lifestyle changes. i graduated from lawschool 1.5 yr ago and did the big ny law firm thing for a yr. and hated the lifestye (prob. also due to uninteresting work).

my advice: give it a try, commit to it for a year, and if its not something you love you can reevaluate then. with the hours you'll be putting in, you'll have to love it to stay. and when you make the decision at that point, try to factor the money in to a minimal extent, b/c monies will come for you, and memento mori
