the law school version of this trap is one of the bleakest, as it's actually very good. for the most part, we know the salary necessary to recoup the cost of an MFA is a long shot, but our culture drills into us from childhood the very wrong notion all lawyers are rich.https://twitter.com/tomgara/status/1422562008403218440 …

probably anything non-engineering at a tech company, for example marketing or HR. definitely ops. but jobs like this also existed throughout the twentieth century, so they aren't much of a replacement, and there aren't nearly enough of them to bridge the gap.
country still needs lawyers in every town, we just don't need *this* many lawyers. i wonder how much this all has to do with our having completely lost manufacturing, which used to be the middle class. not making it to upper middle feels a lot more scary than it used to.

Absolutely, and I wonder how connected this is to the preponderance of influencers on social media showing their magic tricks for how to get rich without working / general obsession with real estate hustling etc

Does being a doctor count as math?
