He graduated from Saint Louis University School of Law, and it's near impossible to get a law job here if you've gone anywhere else. However, he's 42, has worked 7 years, and only makes about $40 grand a year. To me, this seems low for a SLU grad. I don't expect wealth, but why take out $100 grand in student loans if you're just going to make the same as a paralegal? Those loans arent paid off yet, either, and he's single with no dependents, and pays just $500 rent. He works in his brother's law firm, and the brother also pays for his daily lunch, as well as his parking. I'm concerned about our financial future if he has absolutely no ambition or gumption beyond what he needs to get by for himself. To me, a man who wants a wife & family works towards that NOW by making sure they will be provided for when the time comes. He seems to have given it no thought besides simply wanting it. What do you think?
