Race for Fame. (L.A. Stories).

Ah, the struggles of stardom.

After winning CBS' "The Amazing Race" reality television show -- and $1 million -- two L.A. attorneys decided to leave their full-time practice at Jeffer Mangels Butler & Marmaro LLP to focus on their newly lucrative careers in front of the camera.

Brennan Swain and Rob Frisbee finished the 13-week race across the world in first place out of 11 two-person teams. Swain, an intellectual property associate, is going back to acting while Frisbee, a corporate associate, will resume a career in modeling.

But the money they won on the show isn't quite enough for them to give up law completely. They will practice independently. "It's not that we don't want to practice law, but we have to ride the train of opportunity when it comes," Frisbee said.
