Idk, I mean I know someone who’s parents were furriers and they said they basically closed up shop after the 08 recession. They just do storage and reconditioning now as new fur sales have basically no demand.

It may also teach you how to do well on tests that purport to measure intelligence, especially if you aren’t very smart. The SAT correlates strongly with IQ, but it isn’t particularly hard for someone to raise their score from the 20th to 30th percentile with study. Going from the 94th to 98th is nearly impossible though regardless of effort.

I saw this once a many years ago and they used the partner billing rate for the law firm of Miles Lord, an attorney in MN. His firm was family run and they had multiple “Lords” on staff.
