You can actually make good money by going into the law or medicine. You have to work and and be skilled of course, but lets be honest that is also required for a start-up.

I can't help but think that ability is because you can't run a law firm without being a lawyer so the boss has some idea of what it means to be a good lawyer and how to treat them.

Most lawyers at the top-income end hate their bosses and jobs. Law firm partnership track at large firms is a dog-eat-dog 80-hour week hell. People are only happy when they are the few who claw to the top, or the many who drop out. The ones in the middle are suffering as bad as any stereotypical bank programmer.
