Only People Who Make Money During Recession - Lawyers

ADDRESSING newly enrolled members of the Bar, Jayanti Natarajan, MP said, “apart from the nobility of the profession, law is also a profession where there could never be a recession or downturn as the only people who make money during recession are lawyers. Also, in any case legal disputes are bound to exist as long as human society endures ”

She added,

There were four stages in a lawyer's life. Stage one: where there was no work and no money. Stage two: where there was some work and no money. Stage three: where there was some work and some money. And stage four, for a very lucky few, who had no work but lots of money.
