Entrevista al Juez Charles Schudson (versión original en inglés)
ED: Nowadays the term “success” is normally defined in economic terms, related to who has a high status or who has the best prestige and I think it’s all a final product of what being a lawyer means to society. How would you define the concept of “success”?
JCS: Well, that certainty is not a definition for success; in fact it is very interesting that we have learned from research in recent years that the least happy lawyers are frequently the ones from the highest income. We actually have research on this and the research shows that lawyers need to have a certain level of income to have security. Without that security they are not going to have happiness. But once they have reached that level of security and income continues to climb, then, happiness goes down. It’s fascinating! So we know for sure what success is not and it is not making a lot of money.
