I go to work to earn a living and to provide a decent life for my family. Does that make me a fat cat?

Despite years of professional training, relentless continuing education and huge responsibilities for the business and its staff I earn nowhere near what a second rate football player or untrained pop star takes home. It is so easy for people who are completely ignorant of what we do to take cheap "fat cat" shots at us (and some of us no doubt do not help erase that perception) but if the Citizens Advice Bureau is seriously basing its report on those litigants in person who have suffered as a result of their unfamiliarity of the court and legal system then why is the Law Society Gazette even commenting on this?
