Is it worth it for you? Well how the fuck do I know, I'm not you. BUT, you can get "The Dip" by Seth Goden, read through it and decide on your own. A grown ass man asking imageboards if medicine is worth it, wtf is this.

Maybe radiologists and some surgeons. Other specialties are far too difficult to automate. Also good luck having people buy into such a system.

You'll fuck up something, end up harming or killing a patient and get sued into oblivion and have to live with it for the rest of your life.
Meanwhile we'll become rich by hodling shitcoins. How does this make you feel?

Med student here, I'm asking myself the same question every day and I'm more and more convinced "no" is the right answer. It's not worth all the stress and hassle, there are more comfy jobs that pay good as well if you're wagecuck. Otherwise consider trading or freelancing.

>> No.16333457

>>16333328

If you haven’t harmed or killed a patient as a doctor within a year or so then you’re not seeing enough patients.

Idk, maybe? Im in my 4th year of med school (age 27) and so far all i have to show for it is 6 figure debt and debilitating anxiety disorders. Hopefully things improve in residency.

I'm comfy as a pharmacist. $150k+ per year in a low COL area to sit on my ass while my technicians do all the grunt work.
Too bad I'll probably get replaced with Amazon AI in 15 years. Hopefully my shitcoins pay off by then.

Homeopathic medicine is worth it. Good eating habits and staying away from junk food. Exercise properly and drink purified water. Stay away from processed foods and added sugar.

You won’t get replaced if you stay up to date with new tech. “AI” will always be coupled with human interaction, especially in something like medicine, at least for the foreseeable future.

Yes indeed. But there are jobs more tolerable than others... so at least one should aim towards a job they're able to tolerate the suckiness.

I've actually been eyeing such a career for a while now. I'm working for border patrol at the moment. My plan is to put 3 years in here while getting my degree for radiology tech and then apply for part time work in rad while also applying for hospital admin.

Are you telling me a bachelors degree is enough to get in?

>> No.16337070

Sure OP. Start a nice practice where you gatekeep treatments that should cost a few dollars and sell them for $500 a piece because the criminal government says you need a 'license' to perform them which is only available to super smart doktahs who jump through the right hoops
