Over my head

So why is it that I always have the urge to tackle reading things that are way over my head? I don't really have good answer for this. Perhaps all the interesting things are written by educated people. Anyways regardless of why, I was directed to a new article that is going to be an interesting read. If you subscribe to Adam Smith Esq. then you to would have been directed to read this paper as well. The article is an analysis of single versus multiple tier partnerships within the Am Law 200.

The Am Law 200, to the best of my understanding is the top 200 law firms in the US ranked by revenue. If you go to Law Catalog.com you can purchase a copy of the 2006 Am Law 200 for around $475. While this would be interesting to look through and see what some of these firms are making, I just don't have the money for that.

Adam Smith Esq. is a blog about issues covering issues from economics, business, law; and also the economics of law firms. I would recommend this site to anyone who is interested in reading the thoughts of someone who is actually educated in all of these fields. You can click on about Bruce on the right side of the blog to see his accomplishments. Something is going to have to be done about these overachievers. Anyways it is a blog worth reading and also there is a newsletter which contains exclusive content. Bruce would probably be surprised to know that he has readers like myself. Meaning readers with no college degree let alone 3 or 4 degrees. If by chance you do have a background in law, economics or business then his site might be of even more interest.
