"The point is that you can't be too greedy."

We all have one: the Prize. Something that we've promised we'll buy ourselves as a reward when we get through all the exams, write all the papers, and slide into that shiny new job. After all, you don't slave for three years and work yourself to death in order to get money. You sell your soul for the things that money buys.

Since we're all stressing like mad over exams, the Prize is probably more on our minds than normal. So in the name of fostering avarice everywhere: tell us what it is. Just leave a comment with your particular prize, or if your a blawger, just make sure to track back to this entry. Eventually we'll have a master-list of law school avarice, and then we can... we can... erm... I'm sure we'll find a use for it somehow.

Oh, a few rules: (a) No beauty-contestant answers, like "A job working for world peace." That's very sweet, but it's not what we're looking for. (b) Answers are limited to things you want to buy yourself. Again, it's nice that you want to buy your parents that yacht they always wanted, but 'tis not the point. (c) If possible, include a link to an example, so we can all see.

I didn't promise myself a Prize, which may explain my performance on last semester's set of exams. Getting a job - any job - after graduation would be reward enough for a Southwestern grad.

But for the sake of avarice, and hopefully to serve as motivation to study for good grades, I wouldn't mind getting myself one of these. That might be just a little outside of my budget though - more likely than not for a SWLAW grad with "ok" grades. One of those Thai massages advertised on 7th St. that Sean mentioned last night will have to suffice.
