[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suppose not all the doctors and big firm lawyers are on here. I don’t know a single one of them that doesn’t have an expensive car. My friend an anesthesiologist owns three Porsche’s!  My friend from a large DC firm drives a Maserati. He says almost all his partners drive fancy cars. [/quote]

Those are pretty rare examples of hitting a stereotype.  Most big law partners I know drive boring cars --- subarus and mid-grade SUVs.[/quote]

Drive around McLean or Bethesda up Elm street going out of downtown some time. Some rich people in these places are driving BMWs Range Rovers Mercedes and Porsche. I’ve not seen a high end new construction home without a fancy car. In fact every doctor I can think of I’ve over known drives a Mercedes or Porsche. [/quote]

I think these are old stereotypes (at least for doctors).  I'm a physician ($450k income) and have a 2010 Toyota, over 1/2 the cars in the attending physician parking spots are similar.  Granted there are tesla, BMW, audi, Mercedes but a lot of modest cars.  The CMO drives a prius and the CEO drives a Honda.  [/quote]
