The advice to get a law degree and you don't have to practice is crap imo. three years in law school is not as good as three years in the workforce getting experience and getting paid to do it.

Look for options in the field you enjoy without additional education. Then look at how to advance in that field. it may require more but could also be SAIT or certificates or just plain old experience.
How so? The fact is that a law degree does not mean you have to be a lawyer, not to mention the fact that most people have a very narrow view of what being a lawyer actually means.
