Kind of credited. Rich people who have always been rich are by and large weirdos. Idk what happens, they're cool rich kids in hs/college but become weird and spacey later on.

I will never go back to practicing law at a firm, so it really does not matter. This firm needs a lot of housekeeping type work on the front end to get things in order but none of that from me on the back end, I think, and my job is more focused on business development and generating deals than legal work.

I would keep the bar admission, bud. But it's your career so do what you want.

I'm a private equity investor who is going to law school part time specifically so I can represent my own interests without retaining a firm. PE is so, so legalistic; every one of my deals involves actual litigation with the seller after closing or the serious, credible threat thereof. Even if you would bring in outside counsel for serious matters, having a law license and being an employee of the PE firm can make you indispensable.

I appreciate that perspective and will probably keep it around as long as it's needed, and I may hold onto it. I have been promised that I won't need to and that was an important part of choosing PE over banking.

Oil and gas may differ from traditional PE M&A in that upstream PSAs don't have complex entity-focused indemnities that lead to post-closing litigation. Instead most of the action is in specific adjustments to the purchase price for title and environmental defects, which are handled by non-law specialists. Because conveyancing and the nature of oil and gas real property interests are both creatures of state law and the primary economic terms of an asset deal, it's pretty common for non-lawyers to cowboy work that most risk averse nasally coastal elites would send to lawyers.

if you tell this to the strivers they lose their fucking minds. 29tp is a good example of a person who places her entire sense of self-worth into feeling superior to fat of the curve average people because she makes a little more $$ and feels more prestigious in her labors.
