And making more money than in tech?
Most doctors start making money in their mid 30s, so they lost close to 10+ years worth of income if they went to tech.
not to mention by the time they start to practice, a big tech SWE at the same age probably has higher TC
Yea but that’s an honorable profession while techies are here solving/reproducing bugs with chatgpt
My ex took on a quarter million dollars in student loans to get his medical degree
Hmm, yes and no. I like the ideal version of being a doctor. The reality, bad hours, patients suing you. Patients thinking they know better from YouTube and podcast. Ethical guilting due to setting boundaries. Ever go home at night thinking about how a mistake you made might have killed someone?
Medical school - so much things to memorize. Was never good at that.
VC has inflicted the same milk-for-profit pain previously felt by other sectors.
Yes. I’d probably be married to some hot wife if I was a doctor. Nobody wants to date a tech nerd
