[0:00]Lawyer versus Roblox developer. Who makes more money over 15 years? Both started at 18. The Roblox developer starts building games immediately from their bedroom. The lawyer spent seven years in school, four years undergrad, three years law school with no income and graduates with about $150,000 in student debt. The Roblox developer launches their first successful game at 19. They earn $45,000 in year one from Robux revenue, then average around $85,000 annually with a few games. Over 15 years, that's around $1.2 million. The lawyer starts making $95,000 as an associate, eventually reaching $200,000 after years of hard work. They are promoted to partner after seven years, earning $500,000 a year. After student loan payments draining nearly $200,000, their total comes out to around $1.4 million. Only $200,000 more than the Roblox developer. So the next time your parents say go to law school, ask them if you could be a Roblox developer instead.
