Venting post here. I live in Louisiana and I am a plaintiff attorney stuck at 100k. Yes, I know I could go on commission and probably make a lot of money. However, with my kids and family I would not be able to put in the 50 hour plus weeks required- same for high billable work. Is there another field I could get in with higher pay and less hours where my degree would be a plus? Please no sarcastic comments and remember everyone lives a different life.

I would like your opinion: assume someone at its late 30’s that has been doing Trade Finance (structure trade finance and product development) for the past 10 years.
