Vague and negative: Law always
interested me, and I was looking for a
new challenge. I thought it would be a
good time to go to law school. Besides,
I had gotten frustrated with the lack of
support I felt at work.
Dangerous: In the end, my
manager and I could not get along. He
was driving me crazy and I needed to
leave.
Effective: As I succeeded in
financial analysis, I became
increasingly interested in broader
issues of managing money. I wanted to
understand how legal regulations and
individuals' goals affect decisions
about how to manage money. When I gained
entrance to my top choice in law school,
I seized the opportunity to infuse my
financial training with legal knowledge.
