CAREER ADVICE

[Anonymous No.22815570]

I am 22 applying to med school. I also want to retire early. Is it dumb to invest in med school but want to retire by 50? I do want to have one child and I am a woman so obviously I would take off for a year or two but 20 years working isn’t dumb despite the 8 year education and 4 yr residency, right?

Potential loan total would be 200k if I get into my state uni.

First, you have to ask yourself "Am I LARPing?"

Then, you have to followup and ask yourself if you're in it for the money or for the actual work+lifestyle.

There are better options for making money these days.

For comparison, retiring in your 40s in software engineering is basically a given for a normal stint in the industry where you are prioritizing money.

You can be a millionaire in your 30s from SWE, with no high risk investments, because you can start as young as 18 (self study) or at least early 20s with a BS. Starting early + low/no debt is a huge advantage over medicine.

Also take into account things like "how do I work from home as a doctor?" I'm sure there's some medical doctors doing that, but most are showing up to their hospital or practice, especially if they are actively working on or examining someone's body

>I want to retire early so I chose a degree that takes 12 years to even get started in the field
>Retire by 50 is early
Jesus fuck anon, you could work at a gas station, live with your parents and put all your money into Crypto and Stonks and have enough to retire when you're 30, but instead you will be $200k in debt and not be able to really save until you're 40 where the oppurtunity is massively reduced because of how interest compounds the 20 year old with no debt will end up far outcompeting you financially despite your wages since you don't get rich renting your time out in that manner.

>I am a woman
Well there is your problem.
>I want one child
You will need to do so while you're still in school which will make studies difficult and you'll need to bet on a man who has barely even begun his life.

There are 3 things you can work on in life, Self, Love, and Money. You can only do 2 at a time. You want a career? Why? For money or because you enjoy the work. These are decisions that are difficult to make when you've never done anything, but unfortunately ones you have to make. Your best bet would just be to marry a rich man and then do what you want with your life.

Healthcare consultant here. If you want a job in big Pharma that pays $175K/year, all you need is a 4 year pharmacy degree (pharmacist license - MPH) + MBA. Companies now are searching for people with scientific and business acumen.

Generics companies are eating up more and more market share from big Pharma, and big Pharma is dumping boatloads of money into discovering/incubating new innovative drugs and pipeline to counter this (because generics only in-license old drugs), so they want a business savvy pharmacist to lead them to new money.

Eli Lilly, Novartis, Merck, etc are all fighting over talent that have both. Eli Lilly will wait at your MBA graduation ceremony to recruit you at the door for fuck sake.

It’s cheaper than spending 8+ years in Med school just to work at some shit hospital and make no difference. You’ll make more connections in the corporate world anyway - and actually make a bigger impact to patients in the grand scheme of things.

There are much worse programs to take on 200k of debt for. But find out if your loans will start compounding interest immediately, or after graduation. If so, beware

Med school students are also some of the most mentally broken, depressed, suicidal people out there. If you can’t imagine associating with this crowd or could see yourself becoming a part of it yourself, pick a different path.

Med school plus residency is 9 years and with a good specialty, you can make 250k+

The most difficult and meaningful thing you will ever achieve is raising your children and having a family, but women seem to have forgotten the joy of life.

Having a job that makes half as much with less time investment will result in much more money over the course of your life since it will begin compounding earlier, and you won't have as much debts. And it will be less stressful not requiring enormous amounts of work, someone making $250k a year in a hospital is doing a lot more than 40hours of work in a week and it spills into every aspect of your life. How you expect to be involved in a 4 year olds life while you're working a high stress position is a pipedream and that intelligent women are doing this bullshit instead of having and caring for their children is partially why society is so dysgenic. You will need a nanny, but who cares since you make so much money. That kid doesn't matter.

There is only one thing more miserable in an hospital than a male doctor and it's a female doctor. I don't think I know a woman doc at the hospital that isn't a bitter hag by the time she reaches 45.
Back when I was a student and even resident the bipolar among seniors were at 80% women.

Otherwise going into med school to make money is always a terrible idea, it's just not worth it.

Great question.

My advice would be to think out of the box on that. What do you define as difficult? “Salary” can be a byproduct of your aptitude and qualifications - it will come naturally with whichever route you take.

However there a plenty of doctors already. The people who are impacting healthcare on a high level are people who went a different path - doctors/pharmacists who went in-house to big Pharma or to strategic consulting.

They look past the relatively few patients they would see at a hospital or private practice and take that knowledge to help a big group of patients with unmet needs. They advise huge organizations on how to use their vast resources to penetrate a new therapeutic area.

You may be working for a company or firm, but hey, you can always dump your excess cash flow into shitcoins to make it if you wanted. Up to you.

i imagine you have much less access to scholarships and need based finaid if you're entering undergrad after few years of working/being in industry

i'm not saying this is absolute. it is much better to get another degree if you want in your 20s/30s than when you're 50+ (i'd argue it's retarded to go to college past this age unless you're rich or just want to learn and pass time in some other hobby)

[Anonymous No.22817481]

Depends entirely on your specialty.

I work in physician staffing. I met tons of doctors who went 450k into debt just to make 160-180k/year in family med or primary care and barely keep their heads above water. They’ll be working well into their 60’s

If you do any cutting like in cardio-thoracic, ENT, uro, gs, etc then you should be fine. Finding a job that pays 450k+/year (some cardio-thoracics I work with make 1 mil+) will be easy. Many of them are retiring super early.

But are you willing to work for it? PC and family med is the easy way out with 3 years of residency. You may as we just go to PA school and make slightly less but for half the schooling/training. But for those cutting jobs specialties I talked about, you're looking at a brutal and very competitive residency field (lasting 5-7 years) with an even more cutthroat fellowship training (1-2 years) after that. So assuming you manage to get into med school at 24, you aren’t seeing any good money until your mid to late 30s. Your cutting residencies will pay just enough to survive—something like 45-55k/year. And god knows what kind of interest will have accrued on your loans by the time you can try paying them off

[Anonymous No.22817511]

i mean yeah, but i think my degree helped me understand deeper concepts in CS that overall made me a better engineer. sure i didn't have more project-based classes until junior year but by that time i had a good understanding of how a computer works, how algorithms work, how to prove correctness, etc.

though i agree, you can def become competent and get a job with just free resources, i just think it's harder unless you're really motivated. you can find all the stuff i mentioned anyway online for free too, MIT and Stanford have free online classes as do many top tier schools

[Anonymous No.22817548]

>>22817459
also on my first point, it's much harder to get into 'good' undergrad programs if you're older, and those are typically the ones with more money to give for finaid. you could go to a state school/CC for another degree, but imo what's the point if your degree won't give you much more pull for getting interviews, at the end of the day if your school isn't impressive you need to be impressive with side-projects, experience, etc.

if your school is this cheap you should check with their office to see what the hiring rate is for different degrees and if people actually go to good/well-paying companies. like i said, the worse your qualifications (school that granted the degree included) the harder you have to grind to show you're worth it to employers vs ivy league+ CS new grads who may very well have successful side-projects too

>stop discouraging ppl from going to school in adulthood
nigga you're trying to pick up 200k in debt for a field you might not even end up pursuing lmao (as in shit happens, there's no guarantee you finish med school and have a healthy life that enables you to work as a doctor to pay that debt off and save), you tell me what's more destructive to suggest for the average biztard

yeah i alluded to this in >>22817459, it's not as bad for someone in 20s/30s with a solid plan and drive to succeed, but you need to weigh all options and make sure you know what you're doing before taking on more debt imo. would suck to get a degree, get more debt, go into the field, and realize you hate it

>the average CS major makes "77k with an average additional salary of 19k" is that good for CS?
in general i would think so, but the upper echelon of salaries is retarded. for example a new grad at FAANG can make 170k starting, and the promo after that can be more than 250k after initial stock grant rises. it's a nice life. check out levels.fyi if you're curious for more data on these sorts of companies, but like i said it's really hard to get into them, you almost need luck, skill, and to be in the right place at the right time sometimes to land these.

Your loans will never be forgiven, even if the entire universe implodes into heat death. Your profession doesn't have anywhere near the respect, admiration, and clout it had decades ago, and fewer and fewer people trust or like physicians, anyway. You will be targeted by financial advisors wanting to scam you out of money (because doctors are shit with finances).

Why do you want to retire? What does retirement represent to you? What does it look like and why can you not have that experience right now, and every day for the rest of your life? Why feel like you need to earn some reward after 3 decades when you can have it right now?

You want a child probably before 30. This means you will have a kid while in school. Not the easiest thing in the world, still a possibility. But having a kid changes your priorities. Why do you want a kid? What role do you want to play in your kid's life? How available will you be for them?

Why do you want to go into the medical profession? What do you hope to accomplish and spend your time doing? What do you want to experience and share with other people? What do you want to bring to the table? Can you do that anywhere, or is it limited to a narrow set of options?

Most doctors I've met, and my three closest friends are doctors (ER surgeon, anaesthesiologist, and some other bullshit), most doctors I've met do not belong where they are, but they signed up for a system years ago that pigeonholed them into a specialization and a field that they don't fit.

Also want to point out that most of the actually high paying medical fields (cardio thoracic, just remembered my other buddy's job) are hyper cutthroat and there are many reasons why males dominate in these fields. Hint: it has very little to do with sexism.

Take a good look in the mirror and let go of your ego for a bit, ask yourself without pride getting in the way or a misplaced desire to show or prove anything to anyone, especially yourself, if you actually want to go into the medical profession. There are significantly more impactful positions and pathways out there where an individual can shine, and very few of those have anything to do with being a worker bee. If you want to actually help people, help fix the system. You don't do that as a technician. You do that as an administrator, as a managerial asset, not as an engineer.

At the time of ending residency you have a degree and $200k into debt conservatively, but if you are looking at UNI prices they are rising every year substantially so probably more. We will be conservative here with -$200k.
At this time the part-timer investment junkie has about $455k. If he went into a higher risk strategy such as YFI vaults he could get 40% APR with variance probably closer to 20%. Which gives him $1,222,112 at 20% which would basically just be holding DAI and nothing else.

So the Mcdonalds employee now has a $600k advantage over you and no debt. Now you max out your 401k, but due to the debt payments it will take you at least 3 years to get out of the hole where the McDonalds employee has his entire $455k (or more) still compounding while you have almost nothing to your name. You will not be able to catch up to him until you are in your mid 40s at which point you will be able to earn more, but the McDonald's employee didn't have to go school and now has enough dividends to live on without even working.

Going to school for 12 years in order to make money does not make sense mathematically, but as you said you don't like math. It would be better to just do Psych or something and get a job in HR.

Depends where. I am a resident physician in US, finished med school two years ago. I think Ima be able to retire early purely because I bought 30k Link with med school loans on my OBGYN rotation in late 2017. But otherwise being a physician is a ton of work, shit midlevels constantly trying to replace you, and legislation and hospitals trying to do the same because fuck patient when they can hire a nurse with an fake online degree for 1/3 the price.

I'm in anesthesiology which has much better hours than a lot of specialties. Would recommending anesthesia if you dont end up getting scores good enough for Derm. The ROADs specialties meme still holds true.

If you're willing to go rural you'll make plenty to retire well before 50. Go onto white coat investor and Physician on Fire sites, there an enormous community of doctors trying to be as fiscally savvy as possible for easy retirement and financial freedom. There a lot of other docs on this board actually as well funnily enough, but being balls deep in crypto is definitely not inline with the WCI philosophy, but Im obviously happy I did.

Work itself is actually incredibly rewarding despite all the naysaying. Like everyday I get to use my hand physically fo fun dexterity requiring procedures from intubating to complex lines to ultrasound blocks and so on, but also get to actually use my brain daily and work through challenging but rewarding stuff.

ALso ignore the virgins complaining about you mentioning you are a women as the avg bixtard doesnt know about the complexities of women in medicine (hint you need to freeze your eggs ASAP if you are gonna go to med school)

Overall I would still do it again. Fun job, good money, insane job security, good prestige, and opportunity to transition into almost anything. You will work long hours, and being a doctor is nothing like it used to be, and you will get burned out, but so far I dont regret it.

Do you honestly believe surrogating and then raising a child 10 years after you're biologically meant to is how a child is meant to be reared? It is a mere step away from full test tube baby. Might as well just adopt and say fuck it on having children.
Do you honestly believe that two people who work 50-90 hour work weeks having a child in this manner will be good for it and not leave it neglected?

I'm a male, bruh. But yes women who don't freeze their eggs get into their late 30s before they can have a kid when going to med school adn then residency and then fellowship. Adoption an equally and probably more legit option desu. But fuck off back to 1700s virgin. Female docs are generally really smart, but also generally have a lot scrap to them, because medicine in generally is still very unforgiving esp to women. My old female attendings in gen surgery slept in the hallways because there were no Female call rooms back in the day; they're made of different stuff in terms of tenacity and intelligence, and it'd be a shame for their genes and ethics to died off with them because they get too old to have a kid. So any women that makes it through is generally top shelf material, provided they don't come out the other side as a royal bitch (like a 50% chance they will)

Largely because no one should be in the work place, it isn't that hard to make enough money to be rich enough to afford everything a family needs without Working.

In fact it is more likely that you will get rich being a NEET holding a fat stack of crypto than you will waging your time away.

I did some math earlier in the thread with compounding interests a guy working double shift at Mcdonalds putting $20k a year into Even the most basic boomer stocks will outperform a doctor due to the 12 years in college that you could have been compounding and that isn't even considering that he goes balls deep on chainlink.

it's a genuine societal issue. especially considering that intelligence is theorized to be more heavily inheritable from the mother, a >130 IQ woman choosing to have no children contributes directly to ensuring future generations have fewer and fewer people of the intelligence required to even comprehend, let alone attempt to advance, the forefronts of the various fields of study necessary for the advancement of humanity

note that i'm not saying that they shouldn't be allowed to pursue time-consuming careers, just that it puts a major roadblock that there exist few remedies for. things are getting to the point where even a single doctor's salary wouldn't be able to afford an upper-middle class lifestyle, so the father would have to work, and having your kids be raised entirely by nannies is an expedient way to have them grow up maladapted

You're approaching it the wrong way. Do you even like the idea of being in healthcare? I have met so many undergrads in their final year that find out they fucking hate the thing they majored in (namely teaching, but the concept still applies here). Does the sight of blood make you squeamish? Do you have empathy? Good communication skills? Does helping people feel better give you meaning in life? Start there, then consider the time constraints involved with school, boards, residence, etc, and then the education costs vs income. If all goes according to plan, you'll be hitting your peak fertility years when you get out, which isn't the ideal time to find a partner, much less have a kid, just when your career is starting. Unless you're ok with risking a downsies kid or some autistic little shit that's gonna shitpost on chan boards, you'll be looking at adopting. Not that it's impossible to do, just really fucking hard to do and to do correctly.

I saw the numbers in this once, doctor still waxes a professional like an engineer even with a late start. Their ceiling is like 100-150k doctor will start at 250 and you can invest literally all of the excess

You become a doctor because you enjoy working with people not for the $. I would suggest doing something out of the norm. Family practice naturalpath you that does house calls. Charge double the rate to do the house calls. Low overhead since you won't have a giant clinic. Naturalpath prescribe a lot of supplements. You can private label your own supplements and sell your own brand while building that brand as a naturalpath. Get away from McDonald's like healthcare where you are just trying to get as many patients as possible. Instead charge more for quality care and sell your brand. You could even write a book after a few years.
