Hidden benefits...

I guess the best (unintended) benefit to my decision to attend law school is that I no longer need to hold on to textbooks from my previous schooling (current "career"). This textbook "disposal" process has involved liquidation via Half.com & Amazon.com, which are both excellent places to find good deals on used books (this ends my unpaid endorsement). Over the course of several months I have managed to make almost $250 in this effort (which is significantly more than I would have gotten selling them back to the bookstore at either of my alma maters).
I must just offer my extreme gratitude to the many unknown schools and professors out there who continue to use the same book for more than one semester.
