Mr. "I pimp my wife so I can pay my student debt from a 3rd tier law school"; you are a Bonehead, with a capital B.
As for your question, you'd might have a chance at a regional firm, given your inferior law degree. Even then, you will have it tough.

You're equating my research into whether my wife can enter I-banking with a law degree as ''pimping?'' Interesting.
This is a bit amusing, as I think I understand from where some of these people are coming. It's a catch-22 for men in my position, I think, because either way I'm screwed. If I tell my wife not to attend law school to avoid debt, then I'm a shit because I'm trying to ''keep her down.'' If I investigate job opportunities for her that would help to ease an enormous amount of debt for us, I'm a shit *and* a pimp (a shitty pimp?). What's interesting is that some of the people who launched unsubstantive, personal attacks against me most likely have college degrees. (Who else would be in here reading about I-banking? Hell, if it were some kid, I'd actually be impressed even with the insults.) This is on par with a monkey taking a rock to my head because I didn't throw it a biscuit.
Luckily, my wife and I are the coolest teammates. She and I work together very well; my weaknesses are fortified by her strengths, and her weaknesses are fortified by my strengths. We get along wonderfully.
Still, I suppose I have to take some blame here. After all, I called her an airhead (which she at times most definitely is) in public without really clarifying from which area of the heart the term came. My most humble apologies are extended to you all. I do hope that those of you who reacted on impulse can one day experience the type of relationship that my wife and I seem to have. You see, my wife and I don't walk in fear of offending each other because we both know we don't carry an offending attitude toward each other in our hearts. I suppose my mistake is not realizing that at the time I made the comment others might not perceive it the way she and I do.
