Ordinarily, we’d write this guy off as a kook. He feels auras, uses crystals, and performs exorcisms. He’ll wave his “energy hand” to cure you of your ills. People who talk like this are often put in prison, or given a straight jacket.

Not Kenneth Klee, however. He’s called the “dean of the bankruptcy bar,” for good reason. He literally wrote the book on bankruptcy, serving as a contributing editor to Collier on Bankruptcy from 1979 until 1996, recently managed Jefferson County, Alabama’s bankruptcy, and he charges $1,000 per hour. He’s also been a professor at UCLA since 1979.

Allright, then. Where does one get crystals again?

Then again, he charges $300 for a two-hour healing session versus $1,000 per hour of legal work. It’s not like there is some great financial incentive for him to send “lowlife type of spirit[s]” to the “Astral plane.”

So we’ve got to ask: if law isn’t working out as well as you’ve hoped, might this be your next path, dear recent grads? Sure, you’ll have to become some a “vessel” and let “energy” flow through you, but $150 per hour isn’t a bad starting salary.

It beats the pay of our other suggested alterative careers: legal reporting and blogging, teaching, rock star, microbrewer, or (unless you are lucky and brilliant) startup wizard.

Then again, we’d imagine that it takes a special kind of person to become a spirit healer, much like it usually takes a rare talent to become a famous musician.
