[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the MDs should make more than these overpaid attorneys running around here.  Thinking of attorneys in large firms and independent financial regulatory agencies.[/quote]
And more than all of the hedge fund jerks too. [/quote]

Gov't lawyers top out at what 225-240k if you're at a financial regulator? How many drs do you know or do you see on this thread making less than 240k? The ones who've posted here making less than 240k all seem to work part time so presumably make about 1/2 of a regular salary. [b]I feel like you'd have to affirmatively TRY to be a dr. and make less than 250k -[/b]- like go part time, go to some underserved community clinic gig in the northeast etc. Though I do agree there's no reason for drs. to be making less than a quarter million.[/quote]
You don’t sound very familiar with salaries. Like at all. Underserved gigs are where they pay well. Tons of doctors in this area making less than $250 and working full time. What do you think pediatricians make?
Military drs top out at just under $200K (my husband is one in what would be extremely lucrative out of the military). So comparatively still making less than government lawyers. And, we’d love to get out.  Being general practice or pediatrics in the military is sometimes better pay than civilian, because their pay scale is based more on rank. Being one of the higher paid specialities is far less in the military. [/quote]
I just don’t agree with this at all. We’ll have to agree to disagree. Basically you’re saying if you didn’t choose a high paying specialty like surgery, you’re trying make under $250K?[/quote]
