[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three siblings who are doctors and two of them married doctors.

I would recommend avoiding dating doctors. I mean if I met one I really liked and he asked me out, I would say yes, but I certainly wouldn't seek out doctors to date.

I liked my siblings much more before they became doctors. They all tend towards the arrogant and unsympathetic and entitled and self centered side. I think medical training dulls one's synmpathies - there are even studies showing doctors' brains light up less than others' brain when shown someone in pain or told a sad story. Also, i think they tend to be arrogant because they are in settings where a lot of people treat them like gods. And they never have to worry about being unemployed - a lot of them just don't get that most people have to hustle to build careers. They often look down on people who aren't successful. And they seem to think a lot of tasks are beneath them. And they are often logistical disasters and expect other people around them to compensate for that.

In short, they tend not to be very nice people.

And some of them make a ton but many of them make in the 180-300 range - which is a very good salary, but lots of professions make around that. It's not like you are totally hitting the financial jack pot when marrying all doctors.[/quote]

They are also notoriously terrible with money because they feel so entitled.[/quote]
