A quick definition of personal estate:

A personal estate is a type of property that belongs to a person. It includes things that a person owns, like their clothes, furniture, and money. Personal estate is different from real estate, which is land and buildings. When someone dies, their personal estate is usually given to their family or friends.

A more thorough explanation:

Personal estate refers to personal property, which is the right to possess, use, and enjoy a specific thing, whether it is a piece of land or a chattel. It is the right of ownership over something.

For example, a car, a piece of jewelry, or a painting are all personal property. The owner has the right to use and enjoy these items as they see fit, and they can sell or transfer ownership to someone else.

Another example of personal estate is a bank account. The account holder has the right to use the funds in the account and can withdraw or transfer the money to another account.

Overall, personal estate refers to any external thing over which the rights of possession, use, and enjoyment are exercised.

@winningest: i think so if you think about job placements. if you go to a regional school you can only really work in that region
eggan

like im prob going to fordham and that constricts me to NYC/tri state area. if i went to irvine id be constricted to california. but the T14s in those areas? you could work anywhere you want, whatever job you want, and you dont have to be magna cum laude or up to get those positions

also some unicorn PI like earthjustice are fairly lucrative for PI. which are only really attainable if you go to a T14 or reputable regional school (and work at the regional office in that area)
eggan

inb4 anyone argues with me, just look at the 509 reports for regional schools. they basically only place in the region

Isn't Fordham pretty big name anywhere you go tho?
10:31
Yeah I think that’s kinda true but I think if you work super hard and are top 10%at the t≈50 you’re kinda chilling
eggan
10:31
in the tri state area absolutely. california theyve never heard of fordham
eggan
10:32
maybe not never but theyd rather take from a similarly reputable regional school in california like irvine or davis
eggan
10:32

eggan
10:34
between wayne and maurer tho for full rides id actually do maurer. indiana is a bigger name imo than wayne
eggan
10:35

10:35

It seems so odd that lower ranked schools tend to region lock you though, it’s the only profession that really works like that I feel
10:38
That’s part of my fear is I don’t truly know where I’ll want to live in a decade
