Hey PF, would love to get your perspective on this.
- 22, current salary 85k
- ~20k in 401(k), 15k in Roth IRA, 10k in liquid savings
- No debt
I was planning on going to law school next year, but have recently discovered that if I stay in my current role for one more year, I would receive a 15k base pay increase, bringing my salary to 100k. I'm not sure if I should still go or defer a year and save more money- for context the base pay for lawyers at Big Law firms (where I plan on working post-graduation) is 180-190k currently and rising. I would never reach that salary at my current position.
Should I take an extra year or go right away like originally planned?
