Dear Student, A lawyer is capable of earning several times more than any judge. A lawyer of certain standing, ie the ones capable of being considered for appointment as judge of the High Court, can earn far more as lawyers than they can ever earn as judges, even if they reach Supreme Court level. Becoming a judge brings with it a significant reduction of your earnings. However, what you gain in the process is a great deal of prestige, and the chance to actually make a difference. The position in society that a judge has is far greater than that of a lawyer, and the role he plays is also a lot greater. There is honor and dignity in the
