A good case, anyway.

To get any real money these days you have to be really, really fucked up or dead at a very productive point in your career.

And you never get dollar for dollar what you have actually lost. And trust me, when we get a $14m P&S award it's for someone who suffered a horrible agonizing, protracted (2 years) death it gets knocked down to 80 bucks.

Class actions, on the other hand, are like finding a $20 in a coat pocket, if you're the claimant and like finding $20m in a coat pocket, if you're the lawyer.
