Compare apples vs apples. The truth is, as a law graduate you're on average making more than your finance buddies. Outside of the front office positions, most finance positions even in the BB pay less than big 4 starting.
Really? But LSE has a really, really high placement rate for GS, Bain, McKinsey. Any and all of these jobs pay more than being a B4 lawyer and most FLAs outside SC MC US. LSE Economics seems to have the highest placement between all UK schools. 70% of Economics gets a first.

Most are now drawing >10K starting.

If you did another major, now, that's different.
