He said he realized the long working hours. That doesn't mean he is worried about it.

As for the other response, I agree, lawyers are the ball keepers. But you don't need to heed his warning. Go for the law degree if you want the prestige. But I'll tell you upfront, I know the nature of the job and I for one do not look up to them because of their prestige.

I think this prestige associated with the law degree comes is a perception born in earlier years in the 80's by our parents but not relevant now.
