Is a Paralegal career a good path to Law school?

Not sure which career path to take, should i go the 'money' route or the 'make a difference' route?

  • I'm just about to graduate from a good university with a good degree and i can't decide whether i want to go into primary school teaching which i think would be a really worthwhile and interesting job... OR go down a property law/legal career path which will give me more money, and which i'd probably like too but i wouldn't be doing anything worthwhile. So does earning more money make you happier or doing something where you can make a difference in a child's life? I'm really really 50/50 on this as on the one hand i am your average shallow young person and i like nice things and going on exotic holidays, but also i really feel like i could be a good and inspirational teacher. What would your advice be? And also if you have any experience of either of these careers, i would love to hear your answer, thank you!

  • Answer:

    Why do you have to stay in a job for life? you don't so go for the one you have a heart to do and if that is not making you happy (every job has it's moments) then branch out. enjoy life because that is when you can give the most back to the world!

My cousin has a teaching degree and can't get a job. My advice? Go to something that you will actually get hired in. You can go the money route and volunteer. Or teach night classes.

I would do both! Being a doctor is an idea, but if not then I would get a career where the money is which will open new doors for you and you may be able to expand into something that will make a difference for this world, oir just volunteer on the side. In this economy though you might want to make sure you have a good paying job!!
