Well there is a few factors that when it to me becoming a lawyer. When I graduated from college I worked for a, I was in accounting basically and data processing, and I decided I was going to go to graduate school, so I went to Saint Thomas and their graduate program. One of the courses we took a career survey to find out what careers our personality most fit, and surprisingly I was 100 percent in the lawyer category, but once I showed that to my wife, she had to agree that I was a very argumentative type of person, and that that was probably a good career choice for me. So I actually switched from kind of the accounting, computer field to being a lawyer, which I think has helped me, because I did earn my MBA from Saint Thomas. So I have knowledge of finance, so I get to use that with in helping small businesses start and giving them not only legal advice, but I can provide some financial guidance to them, as well.
