I’m 50. I have no pension plan. I have a reasonable amount in my 401k but likely less than professionals in other fields. I cannot put more in 4 a while as hubby and I are putting the kids through college
I work as a hospitalist. I have no sick time vacation time or paid time off. When I work I get paid, when I don’t I get nothing. Medicare cuts reimbursement more every year. If you look at income compared to work, doc pay has been going down yearly and will cont to do so. We are not living the life of leisure most people think. The last 2 days I have worked 30 hours. My gross pay if computed hourly over that time is 60/hour. After tax it’s 30/hr. Not bad for 7 years of post grad education and 25 years experience..../s
Ma’am; you don’t owe these socialists wannabees any explanation.
