Yeah... just like the mortgage crisis of 2008... people who think that way are going to tank all consultants

No, greed is good.

OP, do you think it was the banks, the public (home owners), or governments fault for the mortgage crisis?

Brokers for placing the public in to more house than they could afford and banks for loaning out more $$ than they had... selling off the pieces of loan they could not cover.

I took adderall while I was studying for the bar and it really helped. I don’t have a prescription but am wondering if this likely means I have undiagnosed ADHD but don’t know how to bring this up to my doctor. I definitely have trouble focusing in general and have always been pretty dozey/aloof but have somehow gotten by and am now a third year associate who is doing okay without it. Do you think getting Aderall could help even though I’m doing fine? Maybe I’ll go from good associate to great
