I never had someone recommend a major to me, or recommend I take on loans.

Law school tuition is insane, I can only imagine if you paid for your room and board and tuition with loans and that was only 10% of the aid offered you must have been offered like 500k.

I went to LS at night while holding down a programming job. Quitting my day job would have made the opportunity cost way too high to consider LS. Still had to pay mortgage and family expenses while my wife was a stay-at-home mom.
