You have big differences between lawyers and the cases they do. I do criminal law and insurance law (which in Belgium is mostly about who is responsible for what damage) and I quite enjoy myself. Again, I'd make more money if I'd be doing tax law or something.

Exactly. And it's going to hurt him mentally. In the end your mind is all you've got, but for some reason people refuse to realise this.
Yea that's also a key factor, back when I first started medicine in '13 I wanted to go for the most ambitious thing and the field I love, which is neurosurgery. However, I'm generally a very lazy person and neurosurgery would mean at least 10 more tough years for me before it reaps good benefits, hence why i started considering plastic surgery, much easier and in a shorter time period I can have my own clinic and an easier life.
Of course Id be giving up my ambitions, but on the other hand if I choose neurosurgery and am not happy, then what's the point?
Same could be applied to Witsel, he may have had a strong passion for football, but the amazing offer of 20m + an easy life was too tempting for him.
In the end what matters is it was his choice and he'll have the rewards and consequences to deal with on his own, or maybe even regrets.
