Funny how folks who are supposed to be legally trained leap to assumptions. No point trying to disprove since this is anonymous anyway. Just sharing some gems of advice from experience of what it is like to have pay cut. No one is saying they don’t want high pay. Just flagging the other side. Similar views have been shared before on this thread. Insist on your own beliefs if you will.

By that time, one might likely have acquired penchant for finer things in life, including expensive commitments that become unsustainable to finance on a lower pay.

Yeah I think he/she’s better off staying wherever he/she is when he/she had not so stellar grades lol
