Re doctors. Those who have an equity stake in private hospitals and imaging centers, and who refer their patients to those places, tend to clean up financially.

How in the world do you make that much as a tutor?


I have a specialty, and I am good at marketing. I could probably make more if I actually left my house, but since I don't want to, I am happy with what I am doing.



I need to become a tutor, apparently!

Interesting. We're both doctors (who trained at Hopkins/Harvard/Stanford) and all our siblings are doctors and we know dozens well more well from school and training.
To make a million in medicine you have to: 1) be a spine surgeon in a insanely busy practice 2) be a cash only plastic surgeon in NYC or LA or 3) be an interventional cardiologist who stents vessels that don't need to be stented 4) be a derm path at a major center
I'd bet the number of docs in American who make more than a million actually practicing medicine full time (not working in industry, etc) is only a few hundred, if that.



I think the LASIK doctors do well. The one who did my eyes had done 25,000+ operations. The cost is $3-4k, and assuming he gets even $500 on it, that's a nice bit of change.

Not the poster, but my friend does this. Parents are willing to pay $50-100/hour for a tutoring session, especially for more advanced topics like calculus. It adds up.

Even the cash-only plastic surgeons I know don't earn half of that.


The best doctors in certain specialties earn that, I know because I have several doctors in my family.

I agree about the major plastic surgeons earning a lot. You would be wrong about the number of high-paid doctors being only a few hundred in the entire United States, though.


not for those who are just in clinical medicine. there are only a few hundred who make that much. More if you count those who work in executive positions, the pharmaceutical industry, for insurance companies, etc.
