“6 figures” implies $100,000. Hardly incentive to go thru the process of becoming a Doctor. I have a client who’s 38 and just got certified as a cardiologist. Now he has to set up his practice, pay enormous mal practice insurance fees, find patients, build a trust with those patients and then pay hundreds of thousands back in school loans. Even At $300,000 a year he might pay his mortgage. By the time he’s 48/50 he can start enjoying a good income though.
Good point. Most people don’t understand that doctors are small businessmen. They have a lot of up front expenses and ongoing expenses that go along with their practices. They have to pay their staff, huge malpractice insurance premiums and a bunch of other expenses.
The dims and their press had to demonize doctors to get the public to accept the feds taking over the medical industry to “save us” from predatory doctors. Obama was a big part of that.
Also, Obamacare is actually Hillarycare from the 1990’s. Back then, the dims would not get on board with that fearing that they would be voted out of office. Obamacare is the same garbage just renamed. I wonder why hillary never brought that up. Bet she got paid off.
