I started following Liam when he was preparing for his post-law studies, he is one of those people who are so authentic and generous when it comes to sharing his knowledge and in fact, he has shaped my journey as an aspiring lawyer. Thanks, Liam, keep at it!
The moment he says "that's because of the trust I have built with my audience." Me getting a flashback of all those 5 years I have watched liam's channel and grown up to being law student at 21 now😅
Good on you for putting all this out there but I do wonder about that symbiosis. I'd suggest that if you stick at it and become a more senior lawyer, that sharing some of this stuff may not always be appreciated by clients/colleagues and any 'upside' will be outweighed by the downside. When your role in deals get bigger I predict you will make the decision to scale back the youtube to protect your career. In the meantime I'm sure lots on here will enjoy your content - congratulations!
I’d love to have you on my channel at some point to chat about being a corporate solicitor as I can probably see your office from my flat. (GF is also doing M&A so I’m super interested in the topic)
Can you do a video on how you manage taxes and self assessment? One main reason I don't want to pursue my side hustle passion is the extra admin on top of my full-time job.
I feel like completing leaving out any bonus information is like leaving out a huge piece of the puzzle. Sure, it’s discretionary, but if it’s generally a sizeable % of base then I think it’s worth providing a range of what that could be.
I've been watching your content for years mate. Do you think you'll ever leave corporate law? You just seem like such a decent and top bloke who is clearly very switched on. Just feel like your life would/could be spent in other ways than corporate law for the next 40 years.
This is so inspiring Liam. I am a corporate lawyer myself in India, and I know the kind of hours that are required. It’s quite a demanding job. Plus you are a content creator ! Respect and more power to you !
Hey Liam I really love your channel and content. I often think that with people like yourself, your followers will compare your “day job” and “RUclips” and say “oh well RUclips is much easier ect. But I think that without your day job your RUclips content would not / could not be to the incredible standards it’s at. It’s very common now days for content creators to have ‘come up’ by trading off their traditional credentials like there titles (layer, Dr, prof ect..)
Dang you're ballin Although, I'm sure there are even more ways you could incorporate to monetize this youtube channel But if you like doing both things that might take up too much of your extra time
OMG, solicitors make one-third of what T14 grads with comparable experience make -- maybe even less. Okay, so attorneys in the States work longer hours. I get it. But, of course, not three times as many hours. And expenses in London can't be less (or much less) than expenses in L.A., for example. What do lawyers working for American firms make in London? Don't they have global pay systems? If so, why not work for an American firm Frankly, you make half of what a decent software engineer in the States makes upon graduation with an undergraduate degree, and if you look at the top CS schools, they make three times as much as you right out of school. I'm talking about graduates of Georgia Tech, not even those from CMU, Stanford, or MIT -- comparable schools to Cambridge. Is practicing law in the UK -- or at least for a UK law firm -- really worth it?
awesome, thanks ! I am an actuary and work in finance. I make a decent salary but im thinking about also starting a youtube channel. zero experience on youtube to date, apart from watching all your videos :) what advice would you give to a novice like me. cheers
Hi Liam, I would like to have your opinion , maybe you could even create a video around this topic. What do you think about major life and career changes? I have been following your videos for ages now, and I find it incredible that you seem to love what you do so much. But many of my friends struggle and I always find it hard to give them advice :) Cheers💪
This is wrong. £125,000 / 52 weeks / 5 days = £480.77 that is how you work out a day rate you should not include for holidays in this calculation. This is the standard way an employer will pay you if you do a day extra or deduct from a day less.
125.000 Pounds ist a solid salary. Would you say you are in a competitive field where companies are very picky about their employees (and pay accodingly) or is your field less competitive?
It is a competitive field purely due to the amount of students who aspire to have this type of career versus the amount of people who actually end up at the top of the field on such salaries. There is a significant number of lawyers who do not earn anywhere near that amount. It’s not the field that is competitive - it is the level that he is operating at.

is it 5 years? i feel old!
Thank you for being so transparent Liam! Great content, keep it going!!!
Thanks, Liam! It may not be the kind of videos you usually make, but would you make one about your video creation workflow and gear?

Yes please!
This honestly is genuinely refreshing to see not many creators show this time of thing and it’s a big part people don’t like to talk about

As a fellow Corporate Lawyer and RUclipsr, I loved this video! Thanks, Liam.
What about your income from Menos?

Great video! I’m trying to build up my RUclips channel on personal finance and explore other ways to make money. You’re doing amazing
Great video Liam - you make quality content and deserve all you get.
You are the best Liam !
Im here because I'm curious about corporate law and found you. Do obviously your day job matters!

Not in London
@@davidc4408 Glassdoor says otherwise.

There is a significant number of lawyers who do not earn anywhere near that amount. It’s not the field that is competitive - it is the level that he is operating at.
@@Cat8395 it is a low compared to more competitive fields such as quant trading, private equity etc in London

Great, Superb & Transparent Content Liam - this is why we respect and rate you pal - onwards and upwards!
Very interesting. Am 12 years on RUclips and can’t get higher than £600 per month.
Great content! Liam is one of the most sincere and meticulous RUclipsr in self development that I’ve found
1 crore rupees with 23 lakh yearly income tax excluding other sources
But 26000 inr benefits only
Wowwww! 4:06pm 9-3-24
Decent income in London from assets and career is around 400k and networth 10 million
Thanks for sharing!
Holy fuck
How many I need upload video on youtube for one week?
9.17 Mins. You can thank me later.
I love that you told us your salary! I keep wondering what a lawyer actually earns in the UK. I'm a criminal lawyer in New Zealand.
