Yea. I think the value in learning white collar crime/defense could be invaluable for someone looking to become an AUSA (my ultimate goal)
[] ararara

It’s admirable you want to do that. No wonder you care so much!

my day job is m&a consulting and so often we work alongside lawyers
MightyUnableSphinx
0:49
and the most insane thing i have ever seen in my career was this thing the lawyers did
MightyUnableSphinx
0:50
where basically, in places like poland they have something called "ip box regimes" where if you "do R&D" (develop products) domestically (in poland) you get all these tax credits and benefits, like tons and tons of them
[] ararara
0:51
lol I actually already know what you’re going to say I think
MightyUnableSphinx
0:51
but if you are acquired by a company outside of poland (or wherever the regime is), you have to pay back the value of the credits you got for r&d. so in this case the target was a polish company being acquired by a US domiciled country
MightyUnableSphinx
0:52
anyways it turned out that the target had to pay something like $5m in tax credits back to the polish government. the legal team on the deal asked my team (i am 100% corporate finance transaction advisory) to prepare this analysis of R&D (i am avoiding being technical because you will feel bored) that, to me, seemed litearlly completely pointless
MightyUnableSphinx
0:53
but then like 6 days later word came down that the legal team had succesfully argued that the R&D -- the R&D that was definitely obviously 100% R&D -- should not qualify as R&D & so they shouldn't be burdened to pay back the tax credit. makes no sense to me! you got the credits, you leave, you pay them back. but apparently not! wtf was that!
MightyUnableSphinx
0:54
anyways you said "white collar crime" and it made me think of that even though that was 100% above board i guess, it just felt like we were doing something wrong lmao
[] ararara

Yeah that’s a major dispensation thanks for sharing!

yah it was a pretty sick vanishing trick. was 1 of the 2 things that made me think probably being a corporate lawyer is a worthwhile pursuit
[] ararara
1:01
What’s the second thing if you don’t mind me asking?? Or did I miss it because I’m stupid?!
MightyUnableSphinx

yah sure i was kind burying the lede because im an attention seeking lil stinker

this story is totally crazy but i swear to god it's 100% true and it's what my personal statement touches on, lol. so in june of 2023 i got involved in a startup, i was 1 of 3 people in it. i did the finance stuff and pitching and everything. fast forward like 2 months and it looks like we are going to raise 3 million dollars, fast forward 1 week one of the original founders goes crazy because it looks like we're gonna have millions of dollars having done very little work. legal battle ensues. me and guy who didn't go crazy do not secure legal counsel. guy who went crazy does secure counsel. we are inundated with contracts trying to fuck us out of % multiple times a week. spent many many hour reading contracts, revising contracts, sending contracts but to the bad guy lawyers. it was honestly like the most exciting thing i've ever done in my life so once we settled and sold our % back to the investors i was like "hmmm maybe i should be a lawyer"

also, just like incidentally, i am not really sure how that ranks as a "soft" but i think it's a differentiating essay topic & resume item
