when i was looking into career possibilities I asked my uncle now a successful lawyer in the ny area whether law is a good field to go into? he said he 100% wouldn’t recommend it since the few success new comers are ones who went to the ivy league universities! the competition is huge there are tons of young lawyers without work at all and the only “in” is to have someone who will promise to take you in their firm…
if you still have a chance to decide your career plan the lucrative fields today are: medicine,business (and accounting is always needed around the world)
