    Jacob's Story: How to Save for Law School and Life

    Watch the video interview on YouTube:  https://youtu.be/mDCv0sx30E0 Instagram: fromdropouttojd Also available on Apple podcasts, Amazon podcasts, and all other podcast streaming sites Welcome back to another episode of From Dropout to J.D.! Welcome back to another episode of from dropout to J.D.! Meet Jacob Files! Jacob is a senior at the University of Texas at Austin. Jacob studies government and business, but has a particular interest in equities, personal finance, and real estate. As a first-generation college student from a home-schooling family of seven, the road to getting an education has been difficult from the beginning, but Jacob credits the love, encouragement, and commitment to the Christian faith of his family and his lovely wife, Rebekah, for enabling his pursuits. On the side, Jacob has many hobbies that he stubbornly attempts to juggle in addition to his many responsibilities. Between professional Disc golf tournaments, powerlifting, stock trading, and visiting family, Jacob keeps himself quite busy. He claims that he "must maintain a base-line level of stress at all times or he feels useless." Jacob plans to apply for the law school class of 2026 (matriculation fall 2023) and has his sights set on a top 20 school. He hopes to get an amazing legal education that will enable him to pursue a legal career in Texas in real estate or securities. I hope you enjoyed this episode as much as I did! I learned a lot, and wish Jacob all the best on his law school journey.  If you, or someone you know, would like to be interviewed or featured on the podcast please send an email to info@fromdropouttojd.com or fill out this inquiry form: https://forms.gle/Q69ueXDJGTBiWiY66 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For 10% off 1 month of online therapy use promo-code: DROPOUTTOJD BetterHelp is an online portal that provides direct-to-consumer access to mental health services.
