I had about 780 dollars in my checking account and a few stocks my parents gifted me the day of my last callback. Never got an offer.

$500k? This was 2012 so I can't remember precisely.

Maybe $300k of net worth tied up in my condo and then ~$100k cash/stock, maybe a little more, then whatever was in my 401k.

By the time I sold the condo in 2015, it'd appreciated to $550k.

4.5 years in biglaw. I also paid off $90k in loans during that time. It would've been more if the econ didn't tank in 08-09 which destroyed my 401k at the time.
