Pilots earn a bucketload of money. I think established Pilots on international flights earn like $200-250 per annum. Lawyers at partnership level in Vic earn average of $140k (according to LIJ)

I would imagine accountants at partnership level would earn near the 100K mark. You have heaps of options with your degree

Then you'd have to become a complete prick!

After working with lawyers for 18 months, I've found they are evil batsards!

Couldn't agree more.

Take for example the guy who defended Martin Bryant. How could a guy doing a job like that sleep at night?

And it's contagious. Even their receptionists and other staff become complete *^%$&#'s - even when you are their client they act like they're doing you a favour just letting you talk to whoever the tool is you're paying $$$$.

I have no problem with someone defending M Bryant. If someone is going going to prosecute him, its only fair that he is allowed to get lawyer to present his case. Imagine if you were in court on a drink driving charge, with no defence lawyer.
However i don't see why you even have to have all these lawyers. They should just run it like they do in judge Judy, it would save a lot of money.
 
I agree everyone has a right to a defence. My point is though, who would want to defend a guy who did something like what that guy did?

Drink driving is a tad smaller crime, but I agree with you on how drink driving cases are handled.

IMO you should just have a prescribed penalty and that's it. Like you do with speeding. Eg. 0.10% = x months licence + $x fine. If you don't agree with the penatly you can still take it to court, like with a speeding fine.

Call me cynical, but who advise on how these things are handled? I'm sure it's lawyers. So of course they recommend the process that will give them the most work and $$$$.
 
For some reason I really want to be some kind of designer at the moment. Interior, clothing. Probably just a whim after studying three years of science at uni. :p

Can't say i want to clean toilets either, but someone has to do it.
Money makes people do a lot of things.
It will be interesting to see if lawyers call the shots forever, if the world goes into a severe depression (for whatever reason) i think farmers will be the one who will have most of the power. At the end of the day, lawyers, accountants the list goes on of proffesions which aren't a necessity for survival
