Add to that the fact that we make NO income during extended school years, and minimal income during residency. That means most of us are in our early 30’s by the time we start earning a reasonable income, 5-10 years behind those who went into business/law etc.
Not only are student loans and educational costs high, but income is deferred for quite a while. The relief is one we are out, we make the really big bucks /s
Yes I have a 6 figure income (just barely) But if you look at the time I spend at work, the number of weekends, holidays, kids soccer games, etc that I have spent in the hospital working, the hourly pay is a lot less than your average professional or even skilled laborer. If national health care comes on board, I am retiring. I will not work for the government, and I will not work for less than I already make.
/rant off.
Why turn off the rant
Speak this Truth Loud and Clear
I'm Mad as Hell,
and I'm not going to Take it Anymore
