I know only two: one is about as high ranking as you can get at a prominent Boston hospital w/o being an MD. [b]The second has multiple real estate holdings in 7 and 8 figures and an influencer in the design world. [/b]

For the P+P disser, so much can depend on the prevailing market conditions when someone graduates. Students entering the job market in recessions often never close the wage gap with those older and younger than them. Some have a difficult time getting on a professional track later because they were not able to get on it earlier. I lucked out - graduated into a recession, but moved to another region for a short term unpaid internship. Ended up as a job and I was on better footing than a lot of my classmates who were still struggling to find consistent work. This also undermined the self esteem for a number of them. One of them really never found a professional job until 40s.[/quote]

Grew up in a quintessential middle class family on Long Island. Definitely wealthy now. [/quote]
