Law partners starting 200k+ and 6-7 years can become partner already, but earnings potential can be 10x to 20x of audit MD. Earnings is % of deal size AND actual hours unlike audit after all.

Audit partner starting low 200k after like 15 years at least, local MD only 1m-2m. Own firm need to offer corpsec as well to earn more but no multiple 10m penthouse at NYC London Roppongi Sydney.
